The Full Account: A Billionaire Enemies to Lovers Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798180937896)

The federal review panel's order is clear: ten consecutive days in the field, the billionaire developer and the Parks Canada ecologist who has spent eighteen months blocking his project - both present, no substitutes, one co-signed report at the end.

Declan Holt has read every document Nora Sinclair has produced. He has a legal brief prepared, a Q2 deadline closing in, and nineteen years of practice turning every variable into a contingency. He is prepared for an opponent. He is not prepared for someone who looks at his valley and sees it clearly, who asks nothing of him except the truth, and who does not care at all about the money.

Nora Sinclair has built her practice to be unimpeachable - triple-documented, procedurally exact, personally airtight. She has been wrong about a man with power over her science before. She cannot afford to be wrong again. Ten days in the field with Declan Holt is a professional obligation. The way she starts noticing his hands is a problem she is filing under: not relevant.

But the valley does what the valley does. Fieldwork strips the performance away. He follows her lead on the ice without being asked. She tells him about the buried review in the amber light of a camp shelter with wind outside, and he does not offer solutions - he sits in it with her. And somewhere between the frozen lake at dusk and the co-signed report that neither of them will compromise, something irreversible happens.

Then she finds the legal brief.

The Full Account is a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance set against the Canadian Rockies - a story about two people who have both spent years managing the truth about themselves, and what it costs to finally stop.
