The Light we Bring

She was never supposed to be his future.Hana Al-Amin has spent her life moving toward beauty. Art. Music. Languages. The quiet certainty that the world is larger and kinder than most people believe. At twenty-two, with her future opening before her, she has no intention of becoming part of someone else's carefully controlled world.Benjamin Khoury has built everything from nothing. His company. His reputation. The walls that keep everyone at a safe distance. At twenty-eight, he understands business, responsibility, and loss. Love is another language entirely.When a chance meeting at a university open day draws their lives together, what begins as curiosity becomes something neither of them expected: a love that asks not to be possessed, but to be understood.But some people spend years learning how to open their hearts. And some truths arrive too late.Set against art, family, friendship, and the enduring warmth of home, The Light We Bring is a story about first love, second chances, and the courage it takes to be fully seen.Book Two of the trilogy that began with The Shadows We Bury.
