ISBN: 9798170165063 - the bearing wall (6 Ergebnisse)

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Structural engineer Claire Ashford has built her life around a simple rule: pay complete attention, do the work right, and leave when the job is finished.The Carver Building should be no different.Vacant for more than a decade, the 1907 commercial block has endured water infiltration, careless renovations, a missing structural column, and more than a century of decisions written into its walls. Claire has two weeks to determine whether the building can support a new life.Then she meets Owen Reyes, the restoration architect already studying the Carver from a different angle.Owen listens to buildings the way Claire does. He notices what others overlook. He respects the difference between a quick answer and the right one. And as they spend their days tracing old damage, uncovering the work of people long gone, and trying to understand what the Carver needs to keep standing, Claire begins noticing something she has trained herself not to examine too closely.Some structures survive by carrying more than they were designed to hold.Some people do too.And sometimes the hardest part of understanding what should be preserved is admitting that you want to stay.The Bearing Wall is a thoughtful, slow-burn clean romance about old buildings, careful work, second chances, and two people discovering that permanence does not have to mean being trapped. The manuscript centers Claire's structural assessment of the Carver and her gradually deepening relationship with restoration architect Owen.…
