I LOVED YOU BEFORE THE VERDICT

Four years ago, a stolen kiss at the crest of a sunset-drenched bell tower altered the gravity of Camila's world. Then, the older woman vanished without a single goodbye, leaving behind an unfinished melody and a lingering ghost.

Camila buried the embers of that summer deep beneath the cold, logical architecture of law school, carving out a future built on order.

But order shatters on the first day of the semester. Walking into her advanced legal seminar, Camila finds herself staring at the new faculty member: Professor Lorena Catarina Wilson.

Lorena is everything Camila remembers-seductive, fierce, and a powerhouse in a sharp suit-but now she is completely out of reach.

Standing at the front of a university lecture hall, Lorena represents the absolute authority of the legal world. She has spent the last four years building a flawless professional reputation and a meticulously guarded private life, including a calculated marriage she cannot afford to break.

Every stolen glance is a violation; every whispered confession is an ethical crime. Bound by the unyielding rules of the law and the invisible chains of Lorena's vows, they are stepping into a beautiful, catastrophic trap. In a world governed by verdicts, how long can a forbidden love survive before the truth demands its sacrifice?
