Crimson Thread

In the dazzling heart of Manhattan's fashion scene, Isabella Hart, a visionary designer, is about to unveil a revolutionary collection. Inspired by her grandmother's strength and resilience during the Holocaust, Isabella’s creations feature a bioluminescent textile that reacts to the wearer's emotions—wearable art that illuminates the human spirit. But the brilliance of her designs attracts dangerous attention. Stolen sketches and whispered threats unravel Isabella’s world, drawing her into a conspiracy that reaches far beyond the glittering runways.
Enter Ethan Cole, an undercover detective haunted by past failures. His mission: protect Isabella and her groundbreaking designs. His challenge: resist the magnetic pull of a woman whose fierce spirit and hidden vulnerability ignite a fire within him. As they unravel cryptic messages hidden within the stolen designs, their professional partnership transforms into a forbidden romance, as unpredictable as the technology they’re fighting to protect.
Their investigation plunges them into a world of cutthroat ambition and shadowy secrets, where rival designer Marissa Carter, desperate to save her dying fashion house, and charismatic entrepreneur Grant Rodriguez, whose sustainable fashion empire masks a chilling truth, become key players in a deadly game.  Isabella and Ethan uncover a plot far more sinister than mere corporate espionage — one that threatens her family's legacy, her life, and the very fabric of human emotion.
Caught between duty and desire, Ethan must confront his past demons and choose between upholding the law and protecting the woman who has become his obsession. Isabella, drawing on her grandmother's strength, must fight for her future, her legacy, and the fragile promise of a love born amidst the shadows.  Their love, a crimson thread against the encroaching darkness, is their only weapon, their only hope. From exclusive runway shows to hidden laboratories beneath the city, their final confrontation will expose a terrifying truth and force them to make a devastating choice.  In a city teetering on the brink, the fate of countless lives hangs in the balance, woven into the crimson thread of their forbidden love.
