    Summary

    When Lucy Chen arrives at a remote lighthouse bed-and-breakfast in the teeth of a winter storm, she expects an old lady and a warm room, not the quiet, guarded man who has inherited the place. Tim has built his life on solitude, his dog, his cooking, the steady rhythm of waves against stone. But Lucy’s unexpected arrival unsettles that calm, drawing colour back into the faded edges of his days. As storms batter the coast, both will be forced to face the truths they’ve been avoiding: that sometimes strangers carry the very changes you never knew you needed.

    Summary

    Chenford AU

    Lucy thought she knew what forever was supposed to look like — until the night she’s asked to choose it.

    This is a story about almosts. About the wrong timing, the right person, and the things you don’t call cheating until it’s too late.

    ———

    “That’s all this is. Everything feels heavier after a few too many.

     

    Lucy has always laughed when Tim got too close. Always shoved him off with an eye roll, called him dramatic, told him to knock it off. He’d sling an arm around her shoulders, pick her up without warning, invade her space just to hear her protest. It had always been easy. Predictable. Automatic. The two of them orbiting each other without ever thinking about it.”

    Summary

    “Do you want ice chips?” he asked gently.

    “No, Tim. I want to leave my body. I want to eject from this mortal plane. I want an epidural, a margarita, and a nap in that order.”

    “…So that’s a no on the chips?”
