I wasn't looking for anything more than a fresh start-a place where my passion for design could breathe life into every blueprint. But then I walked into Summit Innovations, and suddenly, it wasn't just the projects that kept me up at night. It was Ethan Hale. Magnetic, brilliant, and maddeningly guarded, he's the kind of architect who turns chaos into art and pushes my ideas-and my patience-to the limit. Our creative clashes spark more than just new designs; they unravel secrets and stir up feelings I hadn't planned on. Late nights at the studio turn into long conversations that dig deeper than floor plans and facades, and soon I'm navigating not just the pressures of the job, but the pulse of something that feels like it could be the start of a new story for both of us. But when deadlines tighten and real-world complications threaten to dismantle everything we've built, I have to wonder-can we find a way to design not just a groundbreaking project, but a future where we both belong?
