Caroline Astor—Manhattan royalty, world-famous supermodel, and the undisputed ice queen of the runway—just wanted to escape the paparazzi and the grueling pressure of her elite life. A solo road trip through the Blue Ridge Mountains was supposed to be her sanctuary. Instead, it ends with a blown engine on a dark Tennessee highway, dead phone service, and her designer heels sinking into the mud.Enter Y/N. A ruthless, self-made multi-billionaire who turned his family's failing land into an agricultural empire. He is hyper-vigilant, deeply cynical, and fiercely protective of his isolation. When he drives down his three-mile driveway to investigate the security breach at his front gate, he expects a corporate spy or a tabloid trap. He does not expect a stranded socialite who has no idea who he is—and who couldn't care less about his bank account.With a massive mountain storm washing out the roads and parts for her foreign car days away, Caroline is trapped in Y/N’s fortress. As two violently different worlds collide, the masks they wear for the public begin to crack. He sees the exhausted woman behind the glamour; she sees the fiercely protective man behind the billions. But when the world they both ran from finally tracks them down, they’ll have to decide if what they found on the ridge is worth fighting for.
