Cuevarde Series #1 Slow burn romance. It starts with a spark of curiosity, those stolen glances, a hint of interest that's easy to dismiss but hard to ignore. As time passes, the subtle interactions and quiet moments shared between two people build a quiet tension, a sense of possibility that's both thrilling and unsettling. The feelings are tender and unspoken, like the first whispers of spring after a long winter - almost imperceptible, but unmistakable. As the days turn into weeks, the connection deepens, and what was once a faint hum becomes a gentle throb, a sense of being drawn to someone without quite understanding why. It's only when they finally acknowledge the pull that the slow burn romance becomes a steady flame, warm and undeniable.

After losing her parents, Klea is forced to leave everything behind and move to a quiet cliffside mansion in Malibu. To outsiders, her new life looks perfect-sunsets over the ocean, a house that feels like it belongs in a movie, and a fresh start. But inside, Klea is drowning in grief, memories, and questions she can't shake. As she tries to adjust to her new home, she starts noticing things that don't add up-whispers about her parents, locked doors, and secrets no one will talk about. And then there's the boy she wasn't expecting-mysterious, distant, and somehow always there when she needs him. In a place that's supposed to help her heal, Klea will uncover truths that could change everything she thought she knew. Some homes offer safety. Others hold secrets.
