🔥 A failing marriage. A forbidden kiss. And a love that changes everything. 🔥

Eva is drowning in the weight of "having it all"—a high-pressure career in Slovenia, a teenage daughter she adores, and a husband who’s become a stranger. She’s spent years playing the perfect wife, mother, and manager, burying her own needs so deep she’s forgotten who she is.

Then comes the opportunity of a lifetime: a temporary transfer to the United States. For the first time, Eva breathes.

And then she meets Alex.

Confident, free-spirited, and unapologetically herself, Alex ignites something in Eva she can’t ignore. What starts as friendship soon spirals into stolen glances, a first kiss that shakes her to the core, and a passion that forces Eva to confront a truth she’s hidden even from herself: She’s falling for a woman.

But between guilt over leaving her family, fear of coming out, and the crushing pressure of societal expectations, Eva faces an impossible choice: Return to the life she’s “supposed” to want… or risk everything for the love that finally sets her free.

✔ A relatable, emotional bisexual awakening—Eva’s journey mirrors real-life struggles of identity and societal pressure.
✔ Slow-burn, steamy romance—From tentative friendship to sizzling passion.
✔ Complex, authentic characters—Alex’s confidence contrasts Eva’s vulnerability; Ana (her daughter) adds depth.
✔ Modern themes—Divorce, coming out, and choosing happiness over tradition.
