Author update

Hey everyone! Just a quick note to let you know that I'll be taking a short break from writing—about two weeks—to unwind, reset, and enjoy a mini vacation. The story is still very much in progress, and I'll be back soon with more chapters (and maybe even a peek into Book 2).

In the meantime, feel free to leave any comments or suggestions! I'm always open to feedback and ideas on how to improve the book—nothing is set in stone, and I fully intend to revisit and refine earlier chapters as the story evolves.

Thank you so much for reading and supporting this journey. See you soon!
