An alternative artist and an aspiring museum director could be the perfect match, except his career is in the hands of her regimented grandfather who hates anything outside the box.
She's chaos in combat boots. He's order in a tailored suit.
Their chemistry? Absolutely explosive. The problem? Her grandfather is his boss and he's not a fan of glitter or scandal.
Nicky Bisset lives loud and creates art that turns heads (and occasionally raises eyebrows.) She's not interested in curating her image for anyone, least of all the uptight art world her controlling grandfather rules.
Ty Lake has one goal: land the museum director job of his dreams. That means keeping things clean, classy, and donor-approved. Falling for the town's sassiest, most unpredictable art teacher? Definitely not part of the plan.
But when they meet at a local coffee shop, sparks fly and they can't stay away.
She'd have to play nice to protect his career. He'd have to risk everything just to keep her. And the one person standing between them? The man who taught Ty everything... and detests Nicky for not falling in line.
It's opposites-attract with heat, heart, and zero chill.
