Romance
Elara Raenor had spent most of her life dreaming of true love. Her ideal man had to be handsome, well-groomed, wealthy enough to provide a comfortable and secure life.“Let’s admit it,” she would often say. “You can’t survive in this world without being practical.”She wasn’t greedy or a gold digger. Elara simply wanted to build a stable family and avoid returning to the hardships she had experienced.Then Rhett Alaric came into the picture.Years ago, Elara had seen him on the cover of a business magazine. He was a young CEO dressed in a perfectly tailored suit, handsome and composed, with a sharp yet remarkably calm gaze. From that moment on, he became the image of her ideal man, someone she believed she could only admire from afar.But fate had other plans.One ordinary day at the coffee shop where she worked, Elara looked up and saw him standing there. The same man from the magazine was suddenly real, breathtaking, and only a few feet away from her.Unfortunately, their first meeting was nothing like the romantic scenes she had imagined. In her rush to serve a customer, Elara accidentally spilled hot coffee all over Rhett’s expensive suit.Shock, embarrassment, panic, and a ridiculous flutter of excitement rushed through her all at once.Then their eyes met. His gaze was cold, sharp, and intimidating.Rhett Alaric wasn’t simply a handsome man in a suit. He was the kind of man everyone was afraid to disappoint.And in that humiliating moment, Elara realized she had not only spilled coffee on the man she had dreamed about for years. She had probably ruined his first impression of her as well. Little did she know, that disastrous encounter would change their lives forever.
