Publisher's Synopsis
Dionne Lucas, a fiercely independent museum art director, has long navigated the world of romance with a simple rule: keep it casual. Dionne has built walls around her heart. That has always been enough, until Charlotte Del Pierro enters her life in the most unexpected of ways.
Charlotte, a sharp-witted lawyer, is not just any acquaintance-she's the sister of Marcus, Dionne's long-standing, no-strings-attached guy. From the moment they meet, sparks fly, igniting a fire Dionne thought impossible. Charlotte's presence challenges everything Dionne thought she knew about herself, stirring a whirlwind of emotions she can neither comprehend nor control.
The pull towards Charlotte is undeniable, a force that threatens to crack open Dionne's guarded heart, revealing a vulnerability she's fought to keep hidden. Each encounter leaves her more entangled in a web of desire, affection, and a terrifying possibility of love.
Faced with her growing feelings for Charlotte, Dionne confronts her deepest fears: Is she capable of love? Can she break free from her self-imposed restraints and dive into the unknown? Or will her resistance to commitment force her to push away the one woman who might just be her soulmate?
