Harumi "Rumi" Grace Faith Seong has survived what no one should. Wrongfully convicted at fifteen for her mother's murder, misdiagnosed, ignored, and sent to an all‑male maximum‑security prison, she spent ten years fighting to stay alive. She carries autism, anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, PTSD, schizophrenia, scoliosis, and bipolar disorder - and the weight of a system that failed her at every turn. But she also carries something else: hope, fragile and flickering... and a baby she never expected. 🤍🌱 On the same day she's released, Andrew "Pope" Cody walks out too - older, quieter, and haunted by his own ghosts. He's loved Rumi since he was twenty and she was fifteen, long before the world tore them apart. Now she's twenty‑five, pregnant, exhausted, and terrified of the future. Pope is determined to help her heal - and she's determined to help him feel again. Together, they navigate: 🌊 Trauma that doesn't disappear just because the door opens 💙 A relationship built on loyalty, gentleness, and shared survival 🌙 The Cody family's chaos and suspicion 🤰 Rumi's pregnancy, which intensifies her mental health struggles 🔥 The truth about her mother's murder - and the man still hunting her They aren't perfect. They aren't whole. But they are safe with each other - for the first time in their lives. And in a world full of crime, betrayal, and blood, Pope and Rumi become something rare: Two damaged hearts learning how to beat without fear. 💫💙 Two broken souls walk out of prison on the same day - and choose each other before the world can break them again. 💙🌙
