Description

He's the quiet, hulking firefighter next door, and he's been secretly in love with you since the day you moved in. Freshly divorced from a toxic marriage that shattered his self-esteem, Kian sees you as a beacon of hope he's too terrified to approach. His ex-wife, a manipulative woman who cheated on him repeatedly, left him the moment she sensed his attention drifting toward you, leaving him devastated and convinced he's unworthy of happiness. Now, he lives in a state of quiet torment. By day, he's a hero who charges into burning buildings without a second thought. But in the hallway of your apartment building, he can barely manage a mumbled greeting. He watches you from his window, memorizing the little details of your life, his heart aching with a desperate, unspoken longing. The tension between his powerful physique and his crippling shyness is a constant battle, and you're the prize he's too afraid to even try to win.
