Fallout Clause

Josie Marchetti was seventeen the last time she trusted an Ashford. Twelve years later, the Ashford family's hospitality empire is still standing on the ruins of everything her father built, and Josie has spent every year since telling herself she's fine with that.Then an email lands in her inbox: Ashford Hospitality is renovating the Cordray, their flagship hotel on the harbor, and her design studio just made the shortlist. She walks into that first meeting ready to hate whoever's sitting across the table.It's Nate. Older, sharper, and somehow still capable of saying her name like no time has passed at all.What starts as a corporate rivalry between two families who used to be something else to each other turns into a childhood sweethearts reunion neither of them asked for, and it doesn't stay professional for long. A billionaire romance with a second chance heart, an enemies to lovers bite, and spicy enough to fog up every window in the penthouse, The Fallout Clause asks what's actually left to salvage when the two people rebuilding a hotel begin building a whole life together.
