His Name Is Michael
Update: The first rule of writing is to follow through and edit later. I discontinued this book because it was not well written, it was not planned out, and it was not consistent. Therefore I will continue to write it, for the sake of completion and giving Michael an end (in more ways than one) I will finish this. This book is no way indicative how the official rewrite will occur/end. Thank you, dear reader, for entrusting this lonely writer with your imagination and motivation. Enjoy. ORIGINAL NOTE: This is a Discontinued series only because I am in the prospects of rewriting it. This is attempt 5 at writing the book and will live to show the progress in my writing.

In the shadow of heartbreak, can love find its way back to the light? Pat was once a boy who believed in forever. In high school, his world revolved around Pran, his first love, and their promises of a future together. But tragedy shattered those dreams, leaving Pat with nothing but memories-and the unbearable weight of loss. Years later, Pat has reinvented himself as Min, a successful yet distant business tycoon running his father's empire. To the world, Min is a man of power and precision, but behind the façade, he's haunted by the ghost of Pran and the love he can't let go. Enter Q, a vibrant young intern who brings warmth and laughter to Min's cold, structured world. Q's presence begins to chip away at Min's walls, stirring emotions he thought he had buried forever. But as their bond deepens, secrets unravel-ones that tie them to a shared past and the possibility that Pran is alive somewhere, waiting to be found. This is a story of selfless love and second chances, where three lives intertwine in a journey of healing, rediscovery, and the enduring hope that love, no matter how lost, can always find its way back. "This is my debut novel, inspired by unique characters and crafted from my imagination. Any resemblance to real-life individuals, events, or entities-living or non-living-is purely coincidental. A story of selfless love, loss, and second chances, it explores the delicate threads that bind hearts together, even across time and tragedy." #love #pain
