Ember Baro’s mother is cock blocking her from the grave. She discovers she has twelve years to keep her nose clean and hands from getting dirty where clients are concerned. If she doesn’t, she’ll lose everything she’s worked for. So, she cleans houses by day and dances by night, going along thinking she has everything under control. Then she meets Bryce Case, the one person she’s supposed to stay away from, and all she can think about is having him and his sweaters, and peacoats, and sea breeze scent all to herself.
After losing his parents and a family friend in a car accident, Bryce Case spends his time working tirelessly at the town mortuary. Now his life is clean and tidy, but the house he shares with his brother’s? Not so much. With their plates full of other things, hiring a cleaning lady seemed like a smart move to make, but the last person Bryce was expecting to walk through his door was the hard to resist, Ember Baro. To make matters worse, he makes a deal with his brother to keep his designer pants zipped around Ember, and now everything in his orderly life is a mess.
Will the threads that bind choke out the flame or hold them together?
