For our main character, however, the apocalypse is a mystery, waiting to be unraveled through exploration and survival.

His words hung in the air like a challenge, even as his eyes betrayed every carefully constructed barrier between them.

Now, forced to live under his roof while her parents work abroad, every brush stroke threatens to reveal what she's kept hidden since she was sixteen. James Harrison built his architectural empire on control and precision, but his best friend's daughter tests every boundary he's ever created. As her guardian, he's supposed to protect her, not burn with desire every time she walks past his home office in paint-stained sundresses. When a vengeful ex-boyfriend threatens to expose their growing attraction, Elena and James must choose between preserving family loyalty and embracing a love that breaks every rule in their social circles.

After all, the greatest pieces of art always break the rules first.
