He takes the last half step like a verdict. ❝𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝,❞ he growls, brutal and soft at once. ❝𝐈 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧'𝐭 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐡𝐨𝐰.❞ Alexis Carter was born to sing, to fill rooms with light-until the spotlight burned her alive. Now, along the wind-brushed Danish coastline, she learns that healing isn't peace; it's confrontation. That love can be a miracle or a mirage. That sometimes the people we trust to save us are the ones who teach us how to breathe alone.

A haunting exploration of loss, self-sabotage, and the quiet courage it takes to stay. The sea keeps its secrets, but the truth always returns with the tide.
