He promised to protect her. He never promised to keep his hands off her.

Cassidy Finch refuses to let Palm Beach's most powerful developers destroy the historic hotel her father left behind.

Saving it could establish her career as a preservation designer and prove she belongs in a world built on old money, private influence, and ruthless ambition. But the men circling the property have deeper pockets, stronger connections, and no intention of letting Cassidy stand in their way.

Then Conrad Sayer steps in.

Twenty years older, impossibly wealthy, and accustomed to absolute control, Conrad has spent years honoring the promise he made to Cassidy's father: keep her safe.

He was never supposed to want her.

Now every threat against Cassidy gives Conrad another reason to pull her deeper into his guarded world of oceanfront estates, private drivers, and protection she never asked for. His influence could save her hotel. His money could secure her future. His touch could ruin every boundary between them.

But Conrad does nothing without taking control, and Cassidy refuses to trade one man's demolition plans for another man's gilded cage.

As forbidden desire becomes impossible to resist, Cassidy must decide whether Conrad is the only man powerful enough to protect her dream or the greatest threat to the independence she has fought to preserve.

Because once Conrad Sayer decides she belongs with him, walking away may no longer be an option.
