As a luxury event planner, she can handle missing flowers, drunk groomsmen, demanding clients, and rich families with too many secrets. What she refuses to handle is Nathan Mitchell, the reckless contractor who nearly ruined her career three years ago and still walks around looking like every bad decision she promised herself she was done making.
Nathan is charming, impulsive, and way too comfortable getting under Nola’s skin. She wants him gone. He wants her to admit she still feels the heat between them.
Then a high-profile destination wedding traps them in the same hotel suite during a storm.
One suite. One bed. Too much history.
Before Nola can survive being that close to Nathan, the bride disappears, the groom’s family starts lying, and the perfect wedding weekend turns into a scandal wrapped in champagne, money, and danger.
To save her reputation, Nola has to work with the one man she swore off forever. Nathan may be trouble, but he’s also protective, clever, and determined to prove he can be the man who stands beside her instead of the man who wrecks her plans.
Close Quarters is a sexy, drama-filled urban romance packed with enemies-to-lovers heat, forced proximity, one-bed tension, Miami wedding chaos, messy secrets, and a confident plus-size heroine who refuses to settle for anything less than respect.
Wynter Rose is an urban fiction author with a soft spot for messy love, loud family secrets, and women who know how to survive with their lip gloss still on. Her stories center complicated Black women, dangerous choices, loyalty tests, betrayal, romance, money pressure, and the kind of drama that starts in private but never stays there.
Outside of writing, Wynter is a lover of good food, glossy nails, late-night playlists, and conversations that start with “girl, you won’t believe this.” She enjoys people-watching, brunch with too much laughter, reality TV that gets entirely too chaotic, and collecting tiny details from everyday life that later find their way into her fiction.
Her books are for readers who love fast-moving drama, grown romance, secrets with receipts, and characters who love hard, mess up harder, and still find a way to stand in their truth.
