They say good fences make good neighbors. But in The Aerie, we dont have fences. We have glass walls.I didnt ask for the mansion on the cliff. I didnt ask for the millions of dollars in debt my father left behind, or the target he painted on my back. I just wanted to fix the place up, sell it to the highest bidder, and vanish.Then I met them.Dominic. The king of the mountain with ice in his veins. Cassian. The silent beast who watches me from the shadows. Ezra. The beautiful liar with a smile that could ruin a girl.They own this city. They own this mountain. And they believe my father stole something from themsomething they intend to take back from me.They started a war to drive me out. They cut my power. They blocked my road. They intimidated my contractors. They thought they could scare me.But they forgot one thing: I have nothing left to lose.So let them watch me through the glass. Let them hate me. Let them come for me. Because the line between hate and obsession is razor-thin, and when these three kings finally break into my castle they arent going to want to leave.

$ 187,000 Kristia Vale knows this number the way she knows the weight of a knife in her hand. It sits underneath everything every decision, every sleepless night, every kilometre of highway between Dubbo and a city shes visited three times. Shes twenty-six. She has a hatchback full of everything she owns, a business plan touched so many times the manila has gone soft, and a jaw that hasnt unclenched since the ignition turned in the dark.Shes opening a restaurant. Not because she dreams of owning one. Because the restaurant is the mechanism. The restaurant makes the money. The money keeps the door open. And the door is not closing. Not while these hands work.Then the building starts talking back.A north wall that holds warmth no season explains. Heat that moves through plaster into skin, through wrists into the chest, settling somewhere deep and unnamed. A wall that shouldnt be warm in May. A wall that has been warm longer than anyone remembers.Next door a green door, slightly ajar. Behind it a woman who pours two cups of tea before anyone knocks. Yiayia Eleni knows things she has no way of knowing. She reads hands like history. She tells stories about the dead buried three rows north as if she walked beside them yesterday. She asks questions that land like surgery precise, necessary, impossible to dodge.Who are you building this for, Kristia?Not what. Who.Lan Kuroi arrives to assess the ceiling and stays because of the walls.Heritage architect. Ink-stained hands. A man who talks about buildings the way Kristia talks about ingredients with reverence, with patience, with the understanding that old things deserve to become what they already are instead of what someone forces them into.He designs her kitchen. Every surface calibrated to the way her body moves through a space. The counter height set for the way her weight shifts forward when she concentrates. The range controls placed on the left because her right hand holds and her left hand adjusts. The pass positioned at fourteen centimetres from where he originally drew it because she needs to see whos coming through the door, and the needing is not about the restaurant.Every measurement is a confession written in millimetres. Every drawing is a love letter drafted in blue-black ink on paper that cant talk back.But Lan carries his own architecture. A father who builds rooms and expects the people inside them to cooperate. A family alliance decades in the making. A woman chosen for him who is smart and capable and deserving of more than a man whose thumb still carries the shape of someone elses hip.Choosing Kristia means walking out of every room his name was built inside.James doesnt ask for anything. Thats the problem.Line cook. First hire. The man who shows up to a building with no kitchen and picks up a broom. Who brings coffee before she asks and says coming through at every doorway and builds supplier spreadsheets at midnight because being useful is the only language he knows. He loves her quietly and completely and the quiet is what makes it devastating because Kristia sees it and cannot answer it and the not-answering sits between them on a stainless-steel counter that was never built for that weight.Crossroads is where everything converges.A restaurant built to save...
