All Eyes on You
Maya Villanueva was thirty-two and had long stopped believing that love was something meant for her. She wasn't bitter - not anymore - but the scars of her last relationship still ran deep. A man she'd once trusted had left her with more than heartbreak; he'd left her doubting her own worth. Since then, Maya had chosen work over romance, building her life around the quiet strength of independence. Now, she lived simply and worked tirelessly as a caregiver, moving from one patient to another, earning not just money but the comfort of knowing she was needed. Her kindness made her loved by many, but her walls were high - too high for anyone to climb. She wasn't the type to wait for rescue. She was the rescue - for others, if not for herself. So when she took the job at the Del Rosario estate, she told herself it was just another patient. Another house. Another night shift. But fate - and the people inside that mansion - had other plans.Complete
