Description

He's looking for the artist who stole his heart. She's the intern serving him coffee.

Ella Avery is a ghost in the machine of high fashion. By day, she is the overworked, unpaid intern for Mode, a prestigious magazine run by her tyrannical stepmother, Victoria Thorne. By night, she is a street artist pouring her soul onto canvas and concrete, watching her stepsisters take credit for her designs.

Dante Santoro is the reclusive, brooding genius behind The Street, the world's hottest streetwear brand. He despises the hollow "sell-out" culture of high fashion—until he begins an anonymous, intellectual email correspondence with a woman at Mode who challenges his cynicism. He thinks he's emailing a brilliant creative director. He has no idea he's falling for the intern he just insulted in the lobby.

When Ella sneaks into Dante's masquerade launch party wearing custom, hand-painted sneakers, sparks fly. But she flees at midnight to protect her identity, leaving behind one sneaker with a defiant message: NOT FOR SALE.

Now, Dante has launched a viral campaign to find his mystery artist. But Ella is trapped by a predatory contract: if she reveals herself, Victoria owns the design. Ella must find a way to expose the truth without losing her art—or the man who loves the mask, but doesn't know the girl behind it.
