Beneath Blackwell
Emma Carter thought surviving her first day at Blackwell Enterprises would be the hardest part of her new job. She was wrong. Ethan Blackwell is cold, demanding, and completely impossible to please. As the powerful CEO of one of the country’s most successful companies, he’s built his empire by keeping people at a distance and emotions out of the boardroom. Emma should hate him. And most days, she does. But beneath Ethan’s sharp words and perfectly tailored suits is a man carrying more weight than anyone realizes. The more time Emma spends working beside him, the more impossible it becomes to ignore the chemistry simmering between them. With meddling friends, disapproving family members, jealous coworkers, rival CEOs, and secrets that threaten to tear them apart, Emma and Ethan are forced to decide whether love is worth risking everything they’ve worked so hard to build. After all, falling for your boss was never part of the job description. Especially when he’s Ethan Blackwell. But when a high-profile corporate event places Emma and Ethan side by side outside the office, maintaining professional boundaries becomes increasingly difficult. Watching Emma effortlessly command the room with her intelligence, grace, and quiet confidence, Ethan finds himself unable to look away. The more he tries to ignore the growing attachment he feels toward his assistant, the more impossible it becomes. What begins as admiration slowly turns into something dangerously unprofessional—because Ethan Blackwell is no longer just worried about crossing a line. He’s terrified of what happens if he loses the one person who’s managed to get beneath his carefully guarded exterior.
