Love wasn't the first thing I felt when I saw him.
There was no sparks, no butterflies, no magical "this is it" moment.
But there was something else---
a quiet certainty, a standard I never knew I was setting for myself.
Maya Torres has always rolled her eyes at cheesy romances. She believes love is something you build, not something you stumble into overnight. Enter Ethan Reyes---quiet, dependable, and far from the dreamy lead in her favorite books. He isn't perfect, but he shows up. In little things, in the moments when no one else bothers. And somehow, without realizing it, Maya starts to measure the world by his presence.
