Between Scars and Sunsets

She spent her whole life surviving.
Not chasing dreams.
Not looking for love.
Just trying to make it through another day.
At twenty-two, Leighe Monteverde has learned that life doesn't always give second chances. Some dreams are left unfinished, some wounds never truly heal, and some responsibilities arrive far too early.
Then she meets Jace Joaquin Villareal.
He's the boy everyone was told to stay away from.
She's the girl who stopped living for herself a long time ago.
When two lives, both carrying invisible burdens, unexpectedly cross paths, they begin to discover that healing isn't always about forgetting the past-sometimes, it's about finding someone willing to face it with you.

Maybe some sunsets aren't endings.

Maybe they're quiet reminders that even after the darkest days, the sky still chooses to glow.

"A slow-burn Taglish romance about family, healing, sacrifice, friendship, second chances, and discovering that sometimes, the people who save us are the ones we were told to stay away from."
