A couture clash. A hostile takeover. Chemistry no contract can contain.

When Arlen Vale—ice-blooded heir to a global fashion empire—targets indie designer Tessa Quinn for acquisition, she has two words for his boardroom charm: not happening. Her label is small but fiercely loved, and she'd rather stitch with fire than surrender her name to a man who treats feelings like rounding errors.

But the runway is ruthless. A sabotaged show, a vanishing investor, and a rumor storm leave Tessa one misstep from collapse. Arlen offers a lifeline with strings attached: a strategic partnership that puts them side by side after hours, sharing secrets, sketches, and the kind of late-night negotiations that blur every boundary.

He believes in leverage; she believes in art. He's sworn off vulnerability; she's done letting anyone redesign her life. In the glare of cameras and the hush behind closed doors, they'll have to decide what's worth protecting—legacy, power, or the fierce, undeniable pull between them.

Hard Cashmere is a steamy, enemies-to-lovers billionaire romance packed with razor-edged banter, fashion-world intrigue, and breathtaking heat, culminating in a swoon-worthy happily ever after. Perfect for readers who crave high-gloss stakes, a heroine who won't fold, and a billionaire who learns that the only merger that matters is the one of hearts.
