A sudden accident took my father, debts swallowed our fortune, and my mother, my only anchor, was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.

On my twentieth birthday, my best friend dragged me into a night I'll never forget. In a crowded club, I met him, the man who saw my fire, my pain, and the pieces of myself I thought were lost. He made me laugh, trust, and feel alive again... until I discovered he was tied to the people who destroyed my family. Torn between heartbreak, revenge, and hope, I had to choose: let the past define me... or forgive, rise, and reclaim my life.

Kiara was from a little countryside town where everyone knew everyone and that was just fine. That was until her mom up and left with her one night, taking her away from the only home she ever knew. From dusty roads, open skies, and the family and friends who loved her dearly, she was forced into the city. Ten years passed, Kiara now 24 and facing the death of her mother. She uncovered a box of unopened letters from her father who had been trying to reach out. With her world unraveling, she decides to return to the countryside for the summer, unsure if she'd be welcome after all this time. But some things haven't changed. Damian Wilson was still there. As old wounds reopen and buried feelings rise to the surface, Kiara must face the truth about her past, and the love she never meant to leave behind. Coming Home isn't just about where you're from... It's about who's still waiting for you. ___________ He carried me across the room, each step charged with anticipation. Reaching his door, Damian opened it with a swift motion, then stepped inside, never letting our kiss falter. Gently, he set me down on the bed, our heated gazes locked as the air thickened with promise. I feel the weight of him leaning over me, his eyes locked onto mine with a hunger that makes my heart race. His voice is low, almost a whisper, yet firm-"Tell me to stop, Kiara, and I will." My breath catches as I look up into those intense eyes, searching for any hesitation. But all I feel is an overwhelming pull towards him. I shake my head gently, my voice steady despite the flutter inside me-"I don't want you to stop." The words hang between us, charged with desire, and in that moment, everything else fades away.
