Still Us
Synopsis
Olivia thought leaving was the brave thing to do.
Nine months ago, she walked away from the man she loved—before he could ask her to stay forever. Not because she didn’t love Kane… but because she didn’t believe she deserved him.
Now he’s moved on. Or at least, that’s what it looks like.
Kane has rebuilt his life with careful precision—new apartment, career momentum, emotional walls that don’t crack. But no matter how far he moves forward, Olivia is still there. In the quiet moments. In the life he almost had. In the future he never stopped wanting.
When Olivia finally reaches out, one conversation turns into something far more dangerous: unfinished love, unresolved pain, and a connection neither of them can escape. What begins as closure quickly becomes a collision—of regret, longing, anger, and desire.
But love isn’t the problem. Trust is.
As Olivia fights to prove she won’t run again, Kane must decide if loving her is worth risking everything a second time. Because this time, walking away won’t just break them—it might end them for good.
Still Us is a deeply emotional, slow-burn second chance romance about self-worth, forgiveness, and the kind of love that doesn’t fade… even when everything else falls apart.
