At Ember & Wax, New Orleans' hottest new lounge, secrets spill as easily as cocktails-and desire hums beneath every note.
Marina Clairmond has built her life on control: running the lounge with precision, keeping her family's expectations in line, and never letting anyone close enough to shake her. But when Logan Carter, a fearless DJ with a dangerous smile and a voice that feels like warm velvet, takes the stage for the soft open, Marina's carefully constructed world begins to shift.
What starts as a quiet spark becomes a slow-burn pull-undeniable, intimate, and full of risk. Logan sees the parts of Marina she's spent years protecting, and their connection threatens to unravel everything Marina thought she could manage.
In a city that thrives on heat and hidden truths, Marina must decide whether to keep her walls intact...or step into something real, tender, and dangerously alive.
The Soft Open is Book One in the Ember & Wax Series-seven interconnected WLW romances where passion ignites, secrets rise, and love plays on repeat.
