Smoke and Silence (Lowlight Duet Book 1)

After surviving a violent childhood trauma that shattered her family, Eleanor “Ellie” rebuilds her life as a photographer alongside her steadfast best friend, James, until Max, the boy who once protected her and then vanished without explanation, returns carrying a decade of secrets, guilt, and hard-earned scars. As the three are drawn together by a struggling nightclub and a shared past, buried truths surface, old wounds reopen, and trust is tested in unexpected ways. Smoke and Silence is an emotionally charged story about survival, forgiveness, and the courage it takes to love again, exploring how healing can come not from erasing the past, but from facing it together, and choosing a future built on honesty, chosen family, and hard-won hope.
