Hostile Shores

They were rivals in paradise-until desire rewrote the rules.

Ava Montgomery lives for results. As the driven sales strategist at the exclusive Seacrest Luxe Resort, she's built a career out of perfection-every guest satisfied, every deal sealed. Then Ethan Cole walks into her office with a smirk, a clipboard, and a talent for dismantling her control.

He's the consultant hired to "fix" her team. She's the woman who doesn't need fixing.

When corporate forces them to share an office-and a make-or-break pitch-their professional rivalry ignites into something neither can ignore.

From boardroom tension to moonlit balcony debates, every argument draws them closer. But when success means leaving the island-and each other-Ava and Ethan must decide what they're really fighting for: the next promotion, or a second chance at something real.

Set against the lush backdrop of a luxury resort, Hostile Shores is a steamy enemies-to-lovers romance filled with sharp banter, open-door passion, emotional heat, and the slow burn of two people learning that love isn't a weakness-it's the win.
