She was promised a one-night stand. She never expected to be gifted by one man to another.
When historical preservation expert Emma meets sunny, sexy Ryan at a benefit gala for her beloved La Bella theatre, she thinks she’s found the perfect guy.
There’s just one problem: Ryan is the fiancé of Robert, a modern architect and Emma’s workplace rival.
Robert and Emma can barely stand to be in the same room together: he’s ten years older than her, a total workaholic, and determined to destroy the La Bella’s charm in the name of restoration. Which makes it all the more shocking when Robert invites Emma back home to play the role of Ryan’s fantasy-fulfilling birthday present.
The catch? Robert gets to watch.
One night of no-strings sex turns into a mindblowing menage, with Emma caught between Ryan’s unashamed passion and Robert’s brooding control. The three become increasingly entangled in each other, and boundaries blur and taboos are shattered as Emma’s darkest desires are brought to light.
But as the restoration gets underway, Robert and Emma’s dueling responsibilities clash. She wants to save the La Bella. He wants to raze it to the ground. And Ryan wants them to find a middle ground, or else he’s out.
Can three busy professionals make an unorthodox arrangement work, or will ego tear them apart?
