SYNOPSIS: Beneath the Armour
Kimberly is a woman of routine, resolve, and silence. Outwardly confident and professionally polished, she hides her scars behind the walls she’s built over years of surviving something she never dared speak of. A painful trauma from her past left her emotionally closed off, especially to men, and even her closest friends have no idea of the darkness she carries.
But everything changes when Ryan Carter enters her world—unexpected, persistent, and infuriatingly kind. He's the type of man Kimberly has spent years avoiding: warm, honest, and terrifyingly perceptive. Where others saw her mask, Ryan begins to see her pain—and slowly chips away at the armor she’s carefully crafted around her heart.
As their paths continue to cross, Kimberly is forced to confront the truths she’s buried and the emotions she’s long suppressed. But opening up means risking it all—her friendships, her sense of control, and the illusion of safety she’s clung to for so long. And when her past starts bleeding into her present, she must decide: will she keep hiding behind the armor, or dare to be seen—vulnerable, real, and possibly… loved?
