Blade And Blister

"I learned to love him the way you learn to walk on a boat: by falling until the floor stopped being solid and started being home."

Asset enforcement agent Coralie Dunn is sent deep into the Atchafalaya Basin to liquidate the floating workshop of stoic wood sculptor Viggo Strand. But their bitter, adversarial standoff is interrupted when an extreme heatwave triggers a toxic cyanobacterial bloom, turning the bayou into poison and trapping them together. Cut off from civilization in a suffocating cage of humid heat, their intense animosity melts into raw desire as they fight to survive. When Coralie uncovers hidden evidence proving her own corrupt firm set a trap to destroy Viggo, she must make a devastating choice: remain a flawless corporate weapon, or risk her entire career to protect the man she was sent to ruin.
