Camille Ellis built Lumé Skin from nothing. No investors, no outside capital, no one to answer to but herself. Six years later, her brand is in three hundred boutiques and on the edge of a deal that could change everything. All she needs is four million dollars and ninety days. What she gets is Reynolds Kieran. A Houston real estate developer with a quiet fortune and a reputation for backing things he believes in, Reynolds arrives in Camille's world with terms that are almost too fair, instincts that are almost too accurate, and an attention that is almost too steady to trust. He has been watching Lumé for two years. He bought a building for her company before she knew his name. And he is the last kind of man she has time for the kind that gets inside the foundation of things. As the deal takes shape, so does something neither of them agreed to. But Camille's ninety day window is shrinking, the people closest to her are not who she believed them to be, and someone has been moving quietly in the background, using her trust as a door and her success as a target. Lumé is a story about what it costs to build something real, what it means to let someone in without losing yourself, and the difference between a man who wants to own something and a man who simply believes in it.
