Overview

Victoria Langford is a powerhouse—48, poised, and the fiercely private owner of a high-tech empire. Her life is scheduled, sharp, and successful. But behind the boardroom brilliance is a woman quietly unraveling beneath the weight of solitude.

Zoe Monroe, her 31-year-old executive assistant, is everything Victoria didn’t know she needed—loyal, intuitive, and quietly brave. For years, Zoe has stood by her side in silence, carrying a secret hope that maybe, just maybe, the woman behind the power suits was someone she could love.

What begins as late nights at the office and soft exchanges turns into something far deeper after a chance moment outside of work ignites the connection neither dared admit. From whispered touches at a gala to dancing barefoot in Zoe’s living room, their love blooms—slow and steady like the roses in Zoe’s backyard.
