Nox Everhart

Some invitations open doors. Others lock them behind you. Forensic investigator Elena Vale has one job at the Cross Meridian Autumn Leadership Weekend: find out where thirty eight million dollars disappeared to, and who made it vanish. What she doesn't expect is Adrian Cross himself opening the door. Billionaire. Founder. A man with a reputation for buying his way out of every problem he's ever had, except this one.
By the end of the first night, a man is dead. By the end of the weekend, everyone at Crossmere Estate is a suspect, including the man Elena can't stop watching across every candlelit room. Adrian didn't ask for an investigator in his house. He definitely didn't ask to fall for her. But every warning he gives Elena sounds less like a threat and more like a man trying to protect her from something he still hasn't found the courage to say out loud.
As shell companies unravel and old secrets claw their way back into the light, Elena has to decide how far she'll go for the truth, and whether the one man with the most to hide might also be the only one telling her the truth all along. Seven days. One estate full of liars. And a fall that will change everything. If you love billionaire romance wrapped around a real mystery, slow burn tension that never lets up, and a heroine who refuses to be managed, charmed, or silenced, THE FALL AFFAIR will keep you up long past when you meant to stop reading.
