⚠️ CONTENT WARNING ⚠️

This story explores heavy and emotionally intense themes. It is messy at times. It is uncomfortable at times. And at times, it may feel painfully real.

The following themes are present throughout the book:

• Childhood trauma

• Strained family dynamics

• Paternal neglect

• Domestic violence

• Mild eating disorder

• Mental health struggles

• Grief, anger, and emotional isolation

Please read with care and be mindful of your own emotional space.

Now, alongside the pain, there is passion. This is a mature story. The romance is emotionally charged and intimate.

The intimacy here is not just physical; it is vulnerable, raw, and deeply tied to the characters’ emotional journeys.

You can expect:

• Slow burn tension that builds gradually

• Longing that simmers before it explodes

• Characters who crave touch but don’t know how to ask for it

• Possessiveness and obsession

• Strong “he’s mine” energy from the FMC

• Adult scenes that do not fade to black

There may be explicit 18+ scenes — but there may also not be.

I write according to emotional flow and comfort. I do not guarantee smut, and I may choose not to include it at all. The emotional depth of this story will always come before physical explicitness.

If you are here only for explicit content, please consider this your heads up.

For readers who feel comfortable with these themes, you are more than welcome here.

And if it feels too heavy right now, that’s okay too. Protect your peace. You can return when you’re ready.
