In the shadows of their fractured worlds, two broken souls find each other. Han Jisung is desperate to escape a past that haunts him, while Lee Minho seeks answers to memories that refuse to surface. Drawn together in a place where healing should feel like hope but instead tastes like despair, their connection is undeniable-a fragile lifeline in an ocean of pain.
But love born in darkness is rarely pure, and their journey unravels in unexpected and devastating ways. As they confront the depths of their own fears and desires, the line between salvation and destruction begins to blur.

This book will be a slow burn enemies to lovers, i took inspiration by reading the manhwa "Lost in the clouds", you will not find any similarities in the plot, but maybe personality wise in the main characters. I recommend the manhwa to the curious souls btw ^^
