Maya Amore

Amaya has always known how to survive.
She's mastered the art of holding herself together - through grief, and through loneliness, as the life she fought to build begins to fall apart.

Now, with time running out, she faces an impossible choice: leave everything behind, or risk her name, dignity and the last pieces of stability she has left.

Then Mateo appears.
Sharp-eyed. Unsettlingly sincere. A SWAT officer cloaked in black - and the last person she'd ever consider to be her knight in shining armour. The man who once stood in her way - now offering a way out.

But some arrangements are more fragile than they seem.
And some truths, once touched, refuse to stay buried.

In a place that never truly accepted her, what does it mean to stay? And what does it cost to hope?
