Ciara - a girl who never knew the warmth of her parents, yet learned to survive through strength, intelligence, and unshaken perseverance. With the help of scholarships and her own determination, she built a life she could call her own. Raised by her loving aunt, Ciara thought she'd finally found stability - until tragedy took her last family away, leaving her in a silence that echoed too loudly.
Then came new beginnings - a circle of friends who became her home, and a love that made her heart beat in ways it never had before.
That love was Keith - the so-called campus heartthrob back in their college days, born from a rich and powerful family, a man who lived in control, privilege, and perfection. He was everything she wasn't - calm where she was fire, calculated where she was chaos. And yet, he fell for her. Hard.
But love, as beautiful as it was, came with a cruel twist.
One mistake, one loss, and their world shattered. Something - or someone - they both cherished was gone, leaving behind wounds that love alone could never heal.
Now, where there was affection, hatred begins to grow.
Ciara's heart, once full of love, starts to drown in resentment. And Keith... the man who once vowed to protect her, becomes the very reason for her pain.
From love to betrayal.
From promises to vengeance.
Their story isn't just about falling in love - it's about surviving what love leaves behind.
This is Book 2 of my five-part series. Another chapter in a world where love meets pain and hearts learn to survive. Each story stands on its own, yet together they form one aching, beautiful universe.
If Whispers of Sorrow broke you, get ready - this one will shatter you even more.
Series #2 out of 5 - stay tuned for what's next.
