Story Notes

“No, really,” Luis added, voice lower. “Sam deserves a prince. The kind that gives her castles and keeps her from lifting a damn finger. Not someone she has to fix.”

Sam couldn’t breathe.

She couldn’t speak. Couldn’t look at him.

Luis raised his glass. “To knowing your place,” he murmured. “And still wishing you could be worthy.”


Summary

In a world run by jet engines and ruthless ambition, Samantha Aleksandra Lim reigns—a sharp-edged heiress, CEO of an aviation empire, all silk and steel. Her life runs on calendar invites and flawless execution… until Luis Alejandro Mendoza—a smart-mouthed, wide-eyed military brat—crashes into her orbit in a Tokyo bar. Seven years her junior, all heat and contradiction, he wasn’t supposed to matter. But gravity doesn’t ask for permission. It just pulls. Across continents and timelines, Sam and Luis keep colliding—Japan, New York, Seattle—never at the right moment, never with the right armor. When Sam’s corporate veneer begins to crack under the weight of sacrifice, and Luis’s battle with identity and worth leaves him crumbling, the universe throws them one final chance: three days to try. No promises. Just honesty, skin to skin, heart to heart. But real love doesn’t come clean. Not when fear, pride, and past wounds crowd the room. Not when you're trying to love someone who terrifies you because they see the entirety of you.
