Hyacinth Brianna Wayne Galvez grew up in a family of teachers-where lesson plans were praised and chalk-dusted hands were the norm. But her dreams don't fit on a blackboard. Hyacinth wants to build, to create, to engineer a world where she is finally enough. Yet everywhere she turns, voices whisper that she's aiming too high, that engineering isn't a place for someone like her.
Torn between loyalty to her family's expectations and the fire of her own ambition, Hyacinth walks a path riddled with doubt, fear, and quiet rebellion.
But dreams aren't her only burden.
Haunted by a broken home and the shadow of her parents' failed love, Hyacinth fears emotional closeness. Her heart builds walls higher than any machine she could ever design. When someone unexpected begins to reach through her carefully constructed barriers, she must face a choice: risk everything for love-or push it away before it can hurt her.
As she stands at the intersection of two futures-one carved by fear, the other forged by courage-Hyacinth must choose: Will she let the voices of others decide her fate, or will she fight for the life and love she truly deserves?
A heartwrenching story of resilience, dreams, and the courage it takes to say goodbye-to fear, to doubt, and sometimes... to the people we love the most.
