The Last Chord

Cornelia starts working in the Ashford household, taking care of Gabriel's younger sister. It was supposed to be a simple job, a quiet phase of her life.
But it quickly becomes clear that Gabriel is someone who keeps his distance - sarcastic, closed off, and clearly hiding more than he lets on.
Their relationship begins with tension and sharp remarks, something that slowly turns into something neither of them wants to admit. Neither of them planned to let anyone get that close.
As Cornelia begins to understand what is really going on in Gabriel's life, she has to decide whether she's willing to stay.
This is a story about slowly building a connection, about boundaries that sometimes blur, and about how some people come into our lives exactly when we least expect them.
