Solar CEO Celeste Vale is hours from launching an orbital power grid when the stranger she took to bed walks into her boardroom as Adrian Cross, the billionaire who has shorted her company into a death spiral. His rescue offer is a hostile merger wrapped in private leverage. As sabotage reaches from Geneva to the Guiana launch site and a global blackout becomes profitable, Celeste must decide whether to destroy the man who priced her failure—or trust him with the switch that could darken the world.
Solar CEO Celeste beds a stranger before launch, then discovers he is the billionaire shorting her empire—and their hostile merger may black out the world.
