Impromptu Moments
~ Impromptu Moments ~
Asteria Maia has spent her entire life behind walls that were carefully built from silence, anger and survival. Cold, sharp-tongued and impossible to read, she trusts no one - Not after growing up in a world where love always came with conditions.
As one of the youngest rising Nursing Directors, Asteria throws herself into her career while quietly falling apart behind the scenes. But beneath the live that she has built for herself life's something darker - buried secrets about her family, her past and a truth that was never meant to resurface.
When a powerful engagement ties her with Alexander Demetrius - A successful architect from one of the city's most influential families - Asteria expects nothing more than another obligation she'll have to endure. Alexander is calm where she is guarded, patient where she is restless and far too observant for her liking But as secrets about her family and life unravel, and the lines between obligation and something real begins to blur, Asteria and Alexander are pulled into something more than they expected.
Because some love stories aren't written in fairy tales. Some are born from secrets, power and the kind of fate they refuse to leave.
