One Reckless Night

A man has built his life around two principles: avoiding love and chaos. When Amelia Pritchard arrives at his elite research facility in the Keys as a student, she embodies both. She is meant to learn from him and remain professionally distant, but her intelligence, appearance, and British accent prove distracting. He recognizes that she challenges him in ways he has spent years resisting. She views him as arrogant and impossible—assessments he acknowledges as accurate. What she does not realize is that his carefully maintained control and ambition are all that hold his world together. She has the potential to dismantle everything he has built. Amelia is also keeping a secret. One night of recklessness threatens to destroy the empire he constructed to avoid exactly this kind of distraction.
