Haije Lemman Goncleir is a wealthy and renowned businessman in his prime-thirty years old, untouched by romance, with no flings, exes, or even a hint of a love life. A self-proclaimed island devotee, he would rather marry his empire than risk falling for someone who only sees his bank account.
Neriss Hae Sartione, a quiet soul from the province who straddles the edges of city life, has loved Haije from afar-loyal and unseen. A compassionate psychiatrist who's a master at healing others' minds, yet struggles to mend her own. Can she let go of a love that never belonged to her in the first place?
One is guarded by steel walls of success; the other is driven by silent devotion. Will a chance encounter write their love story, or will they remain strangers drifting in parallel?
To the world, Haije is a still, unshakable tide. But to Neriss, he's the storm that stirs everything she's tried to keep calm.
