Sophiec93
He's a war-worn doctor with a missing leg and a dead wife. She's a witchy goth girl who tattoos trauma into skin and free-bleeds under the full moon.
Jack Abbot wasn't looking for connection - just a quiet life and a cold beer after the noise of war and loss. But when he follows his best friend to a VA charity tattoo event, he meets Sophie: 22, covered in ink, full of strange rituals, sharp comebacks, and too much heart.
She shouldn't want him. He doesn't believe he deserves her.
But pain recognizes pain. And slowly - through late-night coffees, scar stories, and stolen moments of softness - they begin to unravel each other.
This is a slow-burn, age-gap romance about grief, healing, trauma, and the kind of love that doesn't just burn - it remakes you.
