To Love Kris

Kris Monaco is a young woman running from a dangerous past, haunted by secrets she can't share. Desperate to leave behind the life she barely escaped, she finds herself in a new town, trying to blend in at university and keep her head down. But fate has other plans.

Finn Radcliffe-professor, musician, and the last person Kris expected to feel drawn to-steps into her life with unexpected warmth and quiet understanding. Finn's stern exterior hides a fiercely protective nature, and it doesn't take long for them to notice that Kris is carrying more than just the weight of academic stress. Sparks fly between them, but as their connection deepens, so do the risks.

Bound by the unspoken tension of a forbidden attraction, Kris and Finn navigate stolen moments-like pizza-making nights, quiet drives home, and shared cups of tea. Finn is determined to protect Kris from whatever demons she's running from, even as those same feelings threaten to unravel their carefully maintained boundaries. But with every brush of their hands and every lingering glance, it becomes harder to deny the growing desire between them.

Amid whispers from jealous classmates and the ever-present fear of Kris's past catching up with her, both must decide: Is it worth risking everything for a love that feels inevitable? And if they do take that leap, will they find freedom in each other-or will the consequences tear them apart before they ever truly begin?

At its heart, To Love Kris is a story about healing, trust, and the courage it takes to stop running-and start living.
