Build your Hotlist lens📚 Book 1 of a completed 3-book series
When life explodes and all your carefully laid plans crumble, sometimes the most unexpected person can rebuild you—in the best way possible. After years of checking boxes and playing it safe, a devastating upheaval leaves you questioning everything you thought defined you, until you meet a charming, magnetic photographer who sees you in a way that's dangerously intoxicating. What starts as a simple arrangement becomes so much deeper as you both discover that sometimes the best chapters aren't the ones we plan. Perfect for readers who love watching guarded hearts melt under the heat of genuine connection and second chances.
