Mommy Issues in Accounting

Some numbers, no matter how compelling, do not belong on the same ledger.

At twenty-nine, forensic accountant Nora Solís has built her entire life around noticing the lies other people overlook. When an anonymous whistleblower exposes a massive, nine-hundred-million-dollar fraud at Aurelia Consumer Group, Nora is brought in to dismantle the deception. She is relentless, brilliant, and completely immune to the intimidation tactics of the ultra-wealthy.

Then she meets the CFO.

Evelyn Hart is forty-seven, silver-haired, impeccably tailored, and worth over a billion dollars. She is the architect of Aurelia’s financial controls—and the primary subject of Nora’s investigation. Evelyn is accustomed to controlling every room she enters and every person she meets, but Nora refuses to back down. The clash between them is immediate, electrifying, and deeply dangerous.

To protect the investigation, Nora demands a strict professional recusal, stripping away Evelyn's authority over her. But outside the boardroom, the boundaries they set are immediately tested. Evelyn offers Nora the one thing she has never had: the permission to stop performing, surrender control, and be completely taken care of.

As the forensic trail begins to point directly at Evelyn’s family, Nora is forced to choose between the career she has sacrificed everything to build and the dominant, fiercely protective woman who has finally made her feel safe.

She was hired to find a fraud. She never expected to find her breaking point.

This is a high-heat, high-stakes sapphic romance featuring a formidable older billionaire, a hyper-competent younger accountant, strict power dynamics, and an explosive, happily-ever-after finish.
