Claire wasn't planning to fall for anyone-especially not her now ex-boyfriend's cousin. But Minho? He has a special way of getting under her skin. Of seeing things she's spent years hiding.

What starts as a forbidden, one-time release quickly becomes something else: late nights, stolen glances, tension thick enough to cut. And when life throws them into close quarters-into the ashes of his mother's struggling café, and dodging the emotional wreckage of past relationships-Claire finds herself slipping deeper into something real. Something dangerous.

Because this isn't the kind of love that burns fast and fizzles.
It simmers. Slow. Hot. Unrelenting.

And if she's not careful, it might undo her entirely.

A slow-burn, emotionally messy, chemistry-heavy romance about rebuilding what's broken-and deciding who's worth staying for.All Rights Reserved
