Book III - Held, But Not Kept (LMSY)

She never stayed the night.

To LookMhee, love was a fleeting indulgence-something to be tasted but never swallowed, felt but never trusted. She had learned, through heartbreak and disappointment, that permanence was nothing more than a beautifully crafted illusion, a lie people told themselves to soften the inevitable goodbye. Promises? They were fragile things, delicate threads waiting to snap under the weight of reality.

But then there was Sonya. Brilliant. Rich. Unapologetically successful. A woman who didn't believe in almosts or temporary love. Sonya wanted all of her-every jagged edge, every piece LookMhee had learned to keep hidden. And unlike anyone before, she wasn't afraid to fight for it.

One woman is haunted by the ghosts of her past, convinced that love is a risk she can't afford. The other refuses to accept anything less than forever.

When love and fear collide, when desire meets doubt-who surrenders first?
