Phinera lives in a world where dreams are measured against survival—and always found lacking. Trapped under the weight of her father’s rigid expectations, she hides in the only place that feels like hers: the stories she writes in the quiet hours before dawn. But in a house divided between control and comfort, she is not entirely alone. Her mother offers silent warmth, a fragile shield against the storm, while her elder sister Leah stands as both a warning and a promise—a girl who chose her passion over approval and paid the price for it. As Phinera struggles to hold onto her voice, the lines between duty and desire begin to blur. With pressure mounting and unspoken tensions rising, she is forced to confront a question that could change everything: Is following your dream worth losing the people you love? Because sometimes, the calm before the storm isn’t peaceful—it’s just waiting to break you.

Kimberly: It's nice to have a great book that you can simply melt into. There's a touch of drama but not so much that it's jarring. There's a touch of spice but not so much that you'd be ashamed at recommending it to your mother. The characters have you both chuckling and rolling your eyes at the same time. ...
