When a garment bag mix-up at Milan Malpensa Airport throws Izzy Vale into the path of rival designer Marco Bellini, neither expects the collision to unravel more than fabric.
Izzy has spent her life protecting her family's fashion house with spreadsheets and strategy. Marco has spent his fighting to keep craft alive in a world that only values speed and margins. But when a forgotten 1948 sketch surfaces between them, it reveals a hidden technique - and a family secret - that could either save the House of Vale or destroy it.
Forced to work together in the days before Milan Fashion Week, Izzy and Marco clash over numbers and beauty, legacy and risk. As the pressure from a corporate predator mounts and the sketch's true meaning begins to surface, they must decide whether the crossed threads between them are a threat... or the only thing strong enough to hold.
A slow-burn romance about legacy, craft, and the dangerous pull of a connection neither of them saw coming.
