Writing this second book has been a deeply personal experience. It's more than just a continuation — it's the story of how love grows when no one's looking. Of how two people find clarity in the quiet, strength in the uncertainty, and a home in one another.
This book is about presence — not the grand declarations under lights, but the soft truths whispered in shared hotel rooms, backstage corners, and through messages sent across miles. It's about the moment love stops being a secret and becomes something grounded, something real. About the choice to be seen, even when the world might not understand.
Thank you to everyone who has followed this journey, who has felt the shift from dream to reality with me. If Book 1 was the spark, this book is the flame that stayed lit when distance and doubt tried to blow it out.
And to those who know the feeling of waiting by the phone, of flying back for someone who feels like home — this one's for you.
See you in the next chapter.
