Love, like the ocean, carries depth?waves of tenderness, tides of longing, and quiet currents that pull us closer to ourselves and each other.

These seven stories were not just about romance.
They were about first glances and second chances, about silence and longing, about touch and trust.
They were about the many shades of love?its beginnings, its ache, its healing, and its quiet forever.

Just like seven skies, love stretches beyond the eye.
Just like seven oceans, it runs deeper than words.

If even one of these stories echoed something inside you?
a memory, a hope, a dream you once held?
then this book has done what love always hopes to do: to reach you.

And somewhere between the stars above and the waves below,
we find our stories?messy, honest, imperfect, unforgettable.

Thank you for letting these stories into your heart.

And wherever life takes you next,
may you always find a love that feels like home?
soft as sky, deep as sea, and entirely your own.
