Summary
At twenty-one, Carina DeLuca finally lands the role she’s always dreamed of: the lead in a major Hollywood film. After years of fighting to be seen, success finally feels within reach. But when a new actress joins the set — younger, talented, and full of light — Carina is forced to confront some truths about herself that no camera can capture.
Between takes, lines, and lingering glances, she begins to realize that the line between rivalry and something more might be far thinner than she ever imagined once the lights go down.

Summary
A slow-burn AU about two women learning how to heal, love, and choose each other after surviving the worst parts of their lives.
Carina DeLuca came to Seattle to build a life in medicine, but a devastating apartment fire changes everything. Scarred, heartbroken, and convinced she’s unlovable, she retreats into a quiet job at a bookstore and a life lived behind layers of clothing and fear.Maya Bishop is a rising lieutenant with a past she doesn’t talk about and a smile she uses to hide how lonely she really is.
When Maya walks into Carina’s bookstore two years after the fire, an unexpected spark begins to unravel the walls both women have built. What starts as awkward flirting becomes a slow, aching, beautifully messy connection between two people terrified of being seen — and even more terrified of being left.As they move through fear, trauma, laughter, desire, breaking points, and the raw honesty of falling in love for the first real time, Maya and Carina discover that healing isn’t linear…but it’s a little easier when someone chooses to walk through the dark with you. A story about scars, softness, home, and the slow courage of letting someone love you.

Summary
Maya visits the same book café nearly every day, alone, unnoticed, and content to stay that way. Until one afternoon, she finds a handwritten note in the margins of her favourite novel.

Through shared words, letters, and underlined truths, two strangers begin to fall for each other, without ever speaking a word aloud.
Includes 15 chapters, a 10 year later epilogue and then a one shot collection.
