She flew to the edge of the world to work with her idol. She didn't expect to fall in love with the Ice Queen.

Maya Chen has spent three years dreaming of Kjeldsen Station. As a PhD student, securing an internship with the legendary Dr. Elena Volkov is the opportunity of a lifetime. Elena is brilliant, precise, and intimidatingly beautiful?but she's also known for being impossible to work with.

Elena Volkov has built a fortress around her heart as impenetrable as the Arctic ice she studies. After a career-shattering betrayal years ago, she relies on isolation to keep herself safe. She wants data, not friends, and certainly not a sunny, persistent intern who brings her coffee and challenges her methodology.

But when a catastrophic storm cuts the station off from the rest of the world, their professional distance is obliterated. With the heating failing and the wind howling outside, they are forced into the only warm room left?and into the only bed.

Trapped in the freezing dark, the lines between supervisor and intern blur. As the temperature drops, the heat between them rises, threatening to melt the walls Elena has spent years constructing. But when the storm breaks and the outside world returns, Elena must decide: will she retreat back into the cold, or is she brave enough to stay in the light?

Melting Point is a high-heat, forced-proximity lesbian romance featuring an age gap, a grumpy/sunshine dynamic, and an emotional HEA under the midnight sun.
