Even Monsters Can Love
Before her heart stopped ticking, it found his.
Malia is running out of time—but no one knows.
With a deadly secret buried beneath her fierce smile, she sets out on a final adventure: a spontaneous trip to Italy with her best friend, Muna, and a bucket list filled with dreams she’s never dared chase—until now.
She expects laughs, pastries, and distraction.
She doesn’t expect the dream.
She doesn’t expect him.
Leon is a mystery—ethereal, ancient, powerful. Yet when he sees her, something in him shatters. He doesn’t know her… but his soul remembers her. And she’s the only thing that’s ever made his immortal heart race.
As their worlds collide and the past begins to stir, Malia and Leon discover a love that feels fated—raw, real, and terrifying in its intensity. But there are secrets between them… ones that could change everything.
Because Malia is dying.
And Leon is about to find out she may not be the ordinary human girl she seems.
Maybe, just maybe... she’s the reason monsters can love at all.
