The Audit at the End of the World

He came to shut down the distillery. She came to save its people. Neither expected to fall in love.

Arthur Pendelton is very good at destroying things.

As Sterling Holdings' most ruthless corporate liquidator, he trusts numbers, contracts, and cold logic. Sent to a remote Scottish village, Arthur has thirty days to close the struggling Glenfallow Distillery, sell its assets, and walk away.

Then he meets Isla MacIntyre.

Warm-hearted, fiercely protective, and completely unimpressed by Arthur's expensive suits and colder-than-ice attitude, Isla refuses to stand by while a corporation destroys the home and livelihoods of forty local workers.

Arthur sees balance sheets. Isla sees people.

When a freak Highland blizzard traps them together, their carefully controlled worlds begin to unravel. Cut off from London and forced into close quarters, Arthur's icy exterior starts to crack and Isla discovers the man beneath the ruthless businessman.

Then Arthur uncovers a shocking secret.

Glenfallow isn't failing. It's being deliberately strangled.

And hidden beneath the crumbling distillery is a fortune in legendary whisky that could give them one last chance to save the village.

But saving Glenfallow means Arthur must betray the corporation that built his career. It means Isla must trust the man she was certain she hated. And it means risking everything on a desperate plan that could cost them their careers, their future, and possibly each other.

Because when the snow melts, the corporate wolves will come.

And Arthur will have to choose between the life he's always known and the woman who taught him that sometimes the greatest risk isn't losing everything it's finding something worth keeping.

A snowbound enemies-to-lovers romance filled with forced proximity, corporate intrigue, Highland charm, irresistible chemistry, and a ruthless hero who discovers that love is the one thing no spreadsheet can calculate.
