Ashes don’t lie. They remember every spark, every touch, every mistake.

It was only supposed to be one night.

One impulsive, reckless night on the beach with the only man I’ve ever truly opened up to. He took my pain away, and in return I left him sleeping in the sand without a word.

Now, because I can’t seem to catch a break, he’s my new boss.

I took this job out of necessity, not to relive the most vulnerable moment of my life every time I walk into his office. But Ashton Tyler hasn’t forgotten, and he’s making damn sure I don’t either.

He’s colder than I remember. Sharper. Still stupidly hot. And hell-bent on making me pay for that night, one petty task at a time. I don’t know if he’s trying to punish me or break down the walls I’ve rebuilt.

And the worst part? I’m not sure which one I want more.
