Embers of Us

"Let the daylight fade into memory; the fire we found at dusk was always meant to welcome the dawn."

An operating room must be sterile. Cold. Perfectly controlled. That is how she rebuilt her life from the ashes of a shattered childhood, raising an unshakeable fortress around her heart to shield her twins from the very darkness that once swallowed her whole.

But a fortress cannot stop a ghost who knows exactly where the foundations are cracked.

He arrives with the dusk-an elite weapon wrapped in tailored suits and brutal honesty. A fiercely protective shadow who loves his children to the point of ruin, guarding secrets heavy enough to burn the horizon to the ground.

When their worlds collide under a bleeding sunset, she stands armed for a clinical custody war. What she isn't ready for is the quiet defiance in his eyes, or the devastating truth hidden in his silence: he let their paradise burn to ash once to keep her breathing in the dark.

If their love was a beautiful tragedy destined to end at twilight... why is he refusing to let the embers die?
