If you’re going to burn, burn for something real.
Geraldine Dawson was raised to be perfect.
In a home where appearances, wealth, and power ruled, obedience meant safety—and silence was demanded. Her father’s authority was quiet, manipulative, and absolute. Love was conditional, and defiance came at a cost.
Meeting Lucas King—a fierce boxer who refuses to live by anyone’s rules—begins to unravel the carefully controlled life Geraldine has survived within. Power feels threatened. Perfection cracks. Threats are issued. Ultimatums follow, and the price of freedom becomes dangerously high.
As pressure tightens, anger explodes. Safety fractures. Violence and retaliation follow.
Fear and desperation weigh the same—but only one can win.
What happens when silence is no longer safe?
Where Hope Rises Quietly
Fear rules Valle Oscuro.
The powerful profit from silence. The innocent vanish without trace.
And no one dares to speak.
Into this forgotten place walks Eli Shephard—a man carrying no banners, making no promises, and bound only by his quiet sense of right and wrong. What begins as silent observation becomes something more when Eli crosses paths with a boy too brave for his years and a village teetering on the edge of despair. In a place where survival demands obedience, Eli becomes a catalyst for something dangerous—
Hope.
It’s a story of the overlooked, the oppressed, and the ordinary people who choose, against all odds, to stand.
Handpicked by the very people who read, feel, and champion indie stories.
