  • Vows of convenience Hearts in Collision    Author’s Note

    Thank you for choosing to walk this long, winding, and emotionally charged journey with Saphira Vale and Caelum Drayke. Writing Vows of Convenience: Hearts in Collision has been one of the most intense, immersive, and deeply fulfilling experiences of my writing career, and I am profoundly grateful that you stayed with me from the first spark of conflict to the final dawn of hope.This story began as a simple idea.a contract marriage between two people who could barely stand each other but it quickly grew into something far deeper. Along the way, it became a tale of power and vulnerability, of control and surrender, of two wounded souls forced into proximity until they had no choice but to confront who they truly were. There were moments that surprised me as the author, moments where the characters took the lead, demanding honesty, growth, and emotional truth.I have always been drawn to fierce heroines who refuse to shrink themselves to fit into anyone else’s expectations, and Saphira

The labyrinth, the hybrid creature, the mastermind they were all behind us now.

The silence that followed was heavy.thick with exhaustion, disbelief, and the fragile realization that we were still standing.That we had won.Caelum’s hand was wrapped around mine, warm and solid, anchoring me to the present.

I couldn’t stop not now.Caelum tightened his grip on my hand. “We face it together. No hesitation.”I nodded, swallowing back the fear coiling in my chest.
