some people meet in coffee shops. izel and caleb meet in hospital hallways where the doors don't lock.
izel is unraveling- haunted by a home that was never a sanctuary and a past that won't stay buried. caleb is a ghost in his own life, surviving on routines that keep his heart beating but leave his soul cold.
they find each other in the quiet spaces between breakdowns: over vending machine coffee, in sterile therapy rooms, and in group tai chi sessions. what they build together is fragile, fierce, and terrifyingly real.
this is a story about love that feels like rescue and hope that arrives a second too late. because sometimes, no matter how hard you fight for the surface-the ice still breaks.

Temper, Temper.
(Completely Re-Mastered) Everyone underestimates Kai Wolf-and that's their first mistake. At just 4'9", she's easy to overlook. Easy to dismiss. Easy to regret. Because Kai isn't just small-she's sharp-tongued, hot-tempered, and more than capable of taking down anyone who thinks they can push her around. She's spent her whole life proving people wrong, and so far, no one has been able to match her fire. Until him. Ashor Blair rules the town without question. He's untouchable, unchallenged-the kind of man no one dares cross. At least, not until Kai shows up and bulldozes straight into his world. From the moment they meet, sparks fly-and not the soft, romantic kind. They clash. They argue. They drive each other insane. Neither willing to back down. Neither used to losing. But while Kai thinks she's finally found someone worthy of the fight, Ashor knows something she doesn't. A secret that changes everything. Because whether she accepts it or not... Kai Wolf is his mate.
