28-year-old Danica Monroe lives unapologetically. Her days blur into nights of neon lights, reckless freedom, and fleeting pleasures. She's not chasing love - she's chasing experience. With a sharp tongue and a guarded heart, Danica has mastered the art of keeping things casual. Relationships? Too messy. Too binding. She's built walls not out of bitterness, but out of survival. Then one night, everything shifts. She meets him. Ben Carter. Not her usual type - too composed, too intense, too... magnetic. Their chemistry is undeniable, but Danica brushes it off. Just another night. Just another man. Until it isn't.That one night lingers. Not in her body - in her mind. She hates that. She hates him for it. Because Danica doesn't do emotional hangovers. And yet, she can't stop replaying the way he looked at her like she was more than just a moment. Meanwhile, Ben Carter is the kind of man who built his empire brick by brick, sacrifice by sacrifice. At 35, he's the CEO of a tech conglomerate, a man who commands boardrooms and buries feelings beneath spreadsheets and strategy. Relationships are distractions. He doesn't date - he pays for discretion. His nights are transactional, his heart locked away until Danica. She's chaos wrapped in beauty. She's everything he shouldn't want - and everything he can't ignore. For the first time, Ben finds himself unravelling. She's not a business deal. She's not a fantasy. She's real. And she's dangerous to everything he's built. Now, both of them are on a collision course neither planned. Lust turns into longing. Fear turns into vulnerability. And the question looms: Can two people who run from love survive what it feels like to finally fall?--- Hey guys, just a quick note-this book isn't exactly dark and gritty, but it's not a fluffy romance either. It dances somewhere between the two. Trigger Warnings: Instances of rape Rape Instances of suicide Abuse Violence Death Language

At just 21, Nana Firdausi Abdulhamid is already divorced, a single mother, and exhausted by a world that keeps demanding more of her while offering so little in return. Her whole life has been shaped by rules she didn't write, rules that told her to endure, to stay quiet, to never stop pleasing... even when it hurt. Especially when it hurt. She's not waiting to be saved. She just wants to breathe. Then comes Nabil Hasan Garko, quiet, composed, and completely uninvited. He doesn't offer to fix her. He doesn't see her as broken. He simply enters, like he already belonged in the empty spaces she thought were too messy for anyone to stay. Around him, she feels seen in a way that terrifies her. She hates that he makes her feel safe. She hates how her heart trusts him without asking her permission. Because she's promised herself never to love again not when loving once nearly destroyed her. But Nabil is not what she expected. And love... this kind of love doesn't shout. It whispers. It listens. It stays. Between the Stars is a tender, slow-burning love story about choosing yourself, unlearning pain, and discovering that the right person doesn't ask you to shrink they make room for you to grow.

Because things had always fallen into place for her. This was the first time she faced adversity. Stripped of her livelihood and left to pick up the pieces of her shattered life, she believed that was the lowest point she could reach. Little did she know that the aftermath of that incident would entangle her in unfamiliar troubles.

That remains uncertain. Through thick and thin? Quite possibly. In times of prosperity and hardship? Not such a terrible prospect. Until death do them part? Most certainly.
