Hold On, Let Go
She loved him. He loved her. That was never the problem.
Married young and deeply in love, she believed Cassian was her forever—until years of neglect, emotional distance, and unmet expectations forced her to face the truth: love alone isn’t enough. Leaving him broke her heart, but staying would have destroyed her.
In a world where divorcées are seen as damaged, she struggles to reclaim her independence, navigating judgment from family, friends, and high society. But just as she starts to rebuild herself, Cassian returns, swearing he’s changed. And for a moment, she wonders—could they fix what was broken?
Then, something happens. And when she needs him the most, he fails her in the worst way.
Through it all, Zael remains—a man who was never supposed to be in her story. Mysterious, powerful, and deeply patient, he offers her nothing but honesty, understanding, and space to heal. She isn’t looking for love, and he isn’t trying to save her. But love finds a way anyway. Slowly. Painfully. Beautifully.
But the past isn’t done with her yet. Cassian’s betrayal runs deeper than she ever knew, and Zael isn’t as untouched by her world as he seems. When old wounds resurface and secrets come to light, she’s faced with a choice:
° Drown in the past because of a man who once had her heart
° Or step into the unknown with a man who sees her soul.
