There’s a particular kind of silence that settles in after you close a soft romance — the kind that doesn’t rush you back into the world, but asks you to sit still for a moment. Finding Our Forever left me in that silence. Not loud. Not dramatic. Just quietly present, like a cup of tea gone lukewarm because you forgot to drink it while lost in thought.I went into this book the way I often do: with...
The cafe was calmer now, the evening settling into its corners. Kaia placed the sunflowers gently on the counter, removing the paper wrap with care. She didn’t look at them for long - almost as if they demanded more emotion than she was ready to give.Mrs. Alder noticed.“They’re lovely’', she said softly.Kaia nodded, absently.“Yes, someone geve it to me today.'“Mrs. Alder hummed, trimming a stem.“K...
The first time I paused while reading Beyond Love, it wasn’t because a line demanded applause. It was quieter than that. I found myself staring at the faint smudge on my Kindle screen, the kind you only notice when your mind slips away from words and wanders inward.

Her smile had a way of settling the room - soft yet steady.Amelia was the first to greet her.“Kaia! We we...
Adrian guided Kaia through the glass corridor, the soft hum of morning conversatiion floating around them. The office, with its clean lines and warm tones, buzzed with the low excitement that always came with a new project - and today, a new team lead.Kaia walked beside him, composed yet quietly taking in every detail. Her heels clicked softly on the marble, her formal dress fitted and elegant, co...
Some books don’t begin when you open them.They begin much earlier — in the quiet fears you carry about love, in the endings you never got to choose, in the stories you were forced to leave unfinished.The Things We Leave Unfinished met me exactly there.I picked this book up with assumptions. I’ll admit that upfront. I thought I was walking into a glossy, trope-heavy romance — something indulgent, d...
Adrian was in the middle of explaining a campaign report, when the HR manager’s voice broke through the background hum.“Adrian, your new relationship manager is here. Would you mind introducing her to the team?” He nodded without looking up, still scrolling through the figures of his tablet.”Sure, send her in.”He didn’t notice the first click of her heels on the polished floor.Not until he heard h...
