The Curves He Couldn't Control

She refused to shrink. He couldn't look away.

Aurora Collins learned to fight before she learned to love. Raised in an orphanage, bullied for her body, and written off by a world that rewards women who take up less space — she built herself into something no one expected: sharp-tongued, fiercely competent, and completely unapologetic.

So when she lands a job as personal assistant to Ethan Cavallieri — billionaire CEO, control freak, and the kind of man who judges everyone by a standard no one asked for — she's ready for war.

What she isn't ready for is the way he looks at her when he thinks no one's watching.

Ethan has spent years building walls. His empire. His rules. His obsession with control — born from a betrayal that taught him love was just another word for weakness. He doesn't do soft. He doesn't do second chances. And he definitely doesn't fall for women who break every rule he's ever set.

But Aurora doesn't play by his rules.

She talks back. She stands tall. She matches him fire for fire — and it's driving him out of his mind.

From Manhattan boardrooms to a Paris hotel suite they were never supposed to share, the tension between them builds into something neither can outrun. But when a dangerous ex-girlfriend's lies threaten to destroy everything, Aurora will have to decide: walk away to protect herself, or stay and fight for the man who's learning — for the first time — that real strength has nothing to do with control.
