For fans of authors who balance "fire and heart," Ariana V. Andrews' latest release is a compelling look at how the past rarely stays buried when there is still unfinished business—and plenty of desire—left on the table.

Andrews has built a reputation for writing "perfectly imperfect" female protagonists and men who know how to love them. Her writing is noted for:

As they work together on a high-pressure business expansion, they are forced to navigate "furtive glances" and "explosive confrontations" in the office.

Enter Hayden, her ex-partner who has now returned as her boss to oversee the company's expansion. The dynamic between them is electric and volatile; while Alicia is determined not to let him get the better of her, Hayden is equally set on proving that when it comes to their chemistry, "no rules apply".
