Puzzles, codes, and the thrill of beating the clock—what more could a man want? Then Claire walked into his life like a clue he never saw coming. What starts as a team-building challenge turns into late-night puzzles, laughter, and sparks that neither of them can ignore. But just as Jackson begins to imagine a future beyond padlocks and riddles, Claire drops a twist he didn’t see coming: a job offer in another city. Now, Jackson faces the biggest puzzle of all—how to keep the woman who’s unlocked his heart.
