Prologue
Jake Miller stopped believing in love a long time ago.
After losing his wife, life became nothing more than a routine—wake up, go to work, come home, sleep, and repeat. He doesn't expect anything from the world anymore, and he certainly doesn't expect anyone to change his mind.
Then he meets Kim Yeo Seok.
Twenty-five, optimistic, stubbornly hopeful, and determined to believe that life always has something better waiting around the corner.
Their first meeting is nothing special.
A few dropped books.
A rushed apology.
A name remembered.
But sometimes, the smallest encounters become the beginning of something neither person expected.
Yeo Seok sees something strange in Jake—a man who speaks about hope as though he has none left for himself.
And Jake?
He isn't sure what to make of the young man who seems determined to bring light into a life he's already accepted as dark.
But trust isn't easy.
Especially when the person you're slowly learning to trust is standing on the other side of everything you've spent years trying to forget.
Maybe love isn't about finding someone who saves you.
Maybe it's about finding someone who makes you want to save yourself
