GODDESS
Book Summary
An adult contemporary romance novel that explores the encounter between two souls who have renounced love for very different reasons. Selene, a woman devoted to her work, flees from relationships because she considers them a source of impossible expectations. Ismail, a man scarred by wounds from the past, takes refuge in superficial flings to avoid facing his own pain. Together they will discover that true love does not follow a pre-established order and that, sometimes, the most powerful connection is born from the unexpected. A story about the magic that draws together two people who seemed destined to be alone.
What is it about?
Selene has built her life around her work, convinced that love is an incurable disease that is best kept at a distance. For her, relationships are full of unfulfillable promises and foretold disappointments. Ismail, for his part, is a natural seducer with a hypnotic gaze, but his apparent confidence is only a facade that hides a heart full of resentment and unresolved experiences. Unable to make peace with his past, he drifts from one adventure to the next without allowing himself to truly feel. When their paths cross, both are faced with the possibility that love may not be what they thought. The novel chronicles their journey of mutual discovery, where physical attraction becomes the vehicle for healing old wounds and daring to believe in a second chance.
