Bitter Sweet Contract

Details

Elara Finch's artisanal soap business is more than a livelihood; it's the last whisper of her family's legacy, teetering on the brink of foreclosure. Her secret ingredient, a unique natural extract, was meant to create the purest lather. Instead, it inadvertently sent a glitch through Julian Vance's multi-billion-dollar tech empire, threatening his most anticipated product launch. Enraged, the cold, exacting CEO demands she fix the chaos she unwittingly caused. Elara, a ray of stubborn sunshine, clashes instantly with Julian’s icy demeanor, yet his offer is her only hope to save her ancestral home. Forced into an impossible contract, she navigates his sterile, imposing world, the sharp scent of her natural essences a stark contrast to his steel and glass empire. Each piercing gaze from him sends a tremor through her, a dangerous pull she resents. Failure isn't an option; losing her home means losing everything. But success might mean losing her heart to the very man she swore to despise.
