🌊 Blue Oltremare
In Italy, we call itOltremare— the blue that lies beyond the horizon. Historically, it was a pigment more precious than gold, a depth of color so intense it was said to represent the infinite.
For Clara, Oltremare is more than a color; it is the suffocating weight of the secrets she can’t remember, and the piercing gaze of the man she can’t resist. As Emil’s touch pulls her beneath the surface, the line between comfort and erotic obsession begins to blur. In the vast, deep blue of the Oltremare, you don’t just find yourself—you get lost. And some secrets are only revealed once you are completely stripped bare.

Now that we’ve covered everything (or almost—I hope I haven’t forgotten anything!), you can finally lose yourself in the pages. I’ll see you in the comments!
A fair warning regarding Emil: he’s addictive.
