She thought the tower's silence was the town's biggest problem. Then she fell for the one man whose past could destroy her future, and choosing him meant choosing the truth in daylight. Seren built her life on evidence, not applause. When a historic town tower turns into a crisis of missing records and quiet sabotage, she does the only thing she trusts: she documents, secures, and refuses to let charm replace safety. But the more she protects the truth, the more the town tries to make her the scandal. Hale is older, measured, and burdened by a past decision he wishes he could erase. He knows how quickly a small town can turn love into leverage, and he knows his name can stain anything he touches. Still, when Seren becomes the target of whispers and manufactured proof, he faces the one thing he has avoided for years: accountability in public. As pressure rises and perception becomes a weapon, Seren and Hale must decide what kind of love they're willing to build. Not the kind that hides for comfort, but the kind that survives scrutiny because it refuses secrecy. In a year defined by power plays and paper trails, Seren learns that choosing a man doesn't have to mean losing herself, and Hale learns that love without honesty is just another way to disappear.
