Tempting the Manager

Tempting the ManagerEmma Cartwright has always been the kind of woman who keeps her ambitions high and her emotions in check. Landing a coveted position at Hale International feels like the first step toward everything she's worked for. But her confidence begins to falter the moment she meets Alexander Hale-the enigmatic manager whose sharp mind and quiet intensity make him impossible to ignore. Alexander lives by rules-rules that have built his reputation as a disciplined leader in a cutthroat corporate world.
He doesn't blur lines, and he never lets anyone close. Until Emma. Her presence unsettles his careful balance, drawing him into moments that feel dangerously like more than professionalism. As Emma and Alexander navigate the delicate boundaries of their working relationship, a quiet tension builds. Whispers in the office grow louder, and both are faced with decisions that could cost them everything they've built-or give them something they never expected to find.
A slow-burning, emotional journey about ambition, restraint, and what happens when two driven people discover that the heart doesn't always follow the rules.
