She's a guarded soul wrapped in wit and wildness, the girl with a camera who sees everything-even what people try to hide. He's the cold, tight-lipped enigma with eyes that could cut through glass and a past he keeps locked behind steel walls. She wasn't supposed to get close. He was never supposed to look twice. But somehow, they've become tangled in a quiet war neither of them knows how to win. *** He's never met someone like Marlene Hansley. She's sharp in all the places he's blunt, speaks with sarcasm and sings with abandon in places he stays silent. She gets under his skin, splintering the armor he's spent years constructing. She infuriates him-because she sees him. And worse, she stays. She's never met someone like Kaz Gray. Emotionally unavailable feels like an understatement. He speaks in clipped phrases and glowers like it's his full-time job. And yet, there's something magnetic buried beneath all that static. Maybe it's his silence that feels loud. Maybe it's the way he looks at her like he's trying not to. Whatever it is, she's not backing down-not until she finds whatever light he swore he buried for good. They are opposites. Fire and stone. Noise and stillness. But the gravity between them doesn't care-and it's pulling harder every time they look away.
