FLAME
Some cages are made of iron. Others are built in the mind.
Chris Adler learned that silence was easier than being seen. With scars too deep to explain, he built walls no one could scale, finding solace in his isolation.
Until the life-threatening tumor. Until counting days to his death. And then, the day he was forced to hire a personal assistant.
Isa Smith didn’t want the job. She wanted to sing, to step into the spotlight. But her mother’s voice echoed louder than her own, and burying her dreams became a necessity to seek approval.
Now she’s stuck in an office with a cold, distant man—a man whose fire seems to burn brighter than the ice surrounding him. What neither of them expected was recognition. Because before life tore them apart, they were each other’s first love.
But the past doesn’t stay buried for long—
Some flames never truly die.
Can love find its voice again… before time runs out?
