Natalie Drayton-Ellis didn't move from Jamaica to fall in love. She has one goal: pass the Bar exam. No distractions, least of all Carter Whitmore, the charming New York playboy with a reputation she wants no part of. But Carter isn't what the rumours promise. And Natalie is the first woman who doesn't fall for his effortless charm. Between the intensity of New York and the pull of the Caribbean she left behind, months pass and tension builds, quiet moments, unspoken glances, and a slow-burn connection that refuses to disappear. She's focused on her future. He's determined to be worthy of a place in it. A slow-burn romance where ambition meets temptation... and two guarded hearts learn to let go.
