Years after a love that ended in silence and heartbreak, she thought she had finally moved on from Saint Dashiell Lazaro─the man who once made her believe in forever, and the man who still haunts her memory. She buried the past, the longing, and the late-night regrets... until one lie brought it all crashing back. Trapped by a setup, a storm, and zero signal, Lav suddenly finds herself with no choice but to seek shelter in the last place she ever wanted to be─his. Now, it's just the two of them. In one house. One bed. And too many memories that refuse to stay buried. She told herself she wouldn't fall again. But when the tension turns into temptation and their eyes say everything their mouths won't, Lav realizes this night won't be about closure. It'll be about everything they left unfinished─and the fire neither of them ever truly escaped. ─────────────── Date Started: ── Date Finished: ── Book Cover By: @lilac_han (Lilacine Arts) Characters Illustrated By: @lilac_han (Lilacine Arts) Couple Art Illustrated By: Pepzy PawPaw © 2025 by jeeasyc PS.
