He’s grumpy. She’s sunshine. Together, they’re explosive.

Billionaire tech boss Blake Montgomery doesn’t do small talk, smiles, or second chances. His world is cold, calculated, and perfectly controlled—until Grace walks in and turns it upside down.

Grace is sweet tea and Southern charm. She’s warmth in his icy world, a personal assistant with a knack for breaking through his walls. But getting close to Blake isn’t easy. He’s hiding scars too deep to heal—unless Grace can reach them.

Sizzling tension. Heartfelt moments. A love worth fighting for.

When secrets from Blake’s past come back to haunt them, will Grace’s light be enough to pull him out of the shadows? Or will their love crumble under the weight of his pain?

Set in the heart of Texas, this steamy billionaire romance will leave you breathless. Perfect for fans of grumpy/sunshine, small-town charm, and love that changes everything.
