The Warmth of Winter: A Billionaire Protector Romance

Can a human heart melt a kingdom of ice? Clara Vance is drowning. Trapped in a freezing New York winter, she's working herself to the bone at a massive tech empire just to pay her little sister's mounting hospital bills. She believes in hard work, rent money, and survival-not fairy tales. Until her hand brushes against her terrifying billionaire boss. Elias Thorne is a Wall Street legend-ruthless, brilliant, and completely cold. But the human world is just a mask. In truth, he is the Fae King of the Winter Realm, trapped in exile and slowly freezing to death from his own volatile magic. To protect his city, he built a wall of absolute, emotionless ice around his heart. But one touch from Clara shatters his defences. She is an Anchor-a rare human whose pure empathy can ground a Fae King's wild element. For the first time in fifty years, Elias feels absolute, glowing warmth. And his enemies have just smelled it. When a brutal Autumn army breaches their defences, using Clara's sick sister as a deadly trap, Elias will do anything to protect the woman who became his salvation. Forced to flee the human world, Clara is thrust into a breathtaking kingdom of sparkling ice palaces, ancient magic, and a royal court that demands she become their Queen. From the dark, snowy streets of Manhattan to a literal battlefield of fire and frost, a human woman with a hidden inner power must stand beside a fierce protector, King. Together, they will either forge the ultimate weapon... or watch the realms burn to ash.
