Paradoxes Of Love

Dedication

For everyone who has ever held love in their hands—and wondered whether to hold tighter or let go.

A Note from the Author

Love is not a straight line. It bends, contradicts, betrays, and redeems. Sometimes it wounds us, sometimes it saves us—often both at once.

These stories grew from the quiet spaces where truth hides: between longing and fear, between silence and confession, between what we show and what we cannot say.

I hope you find a piece of yourself in these pages—and perhaps a reminder that even in its contradictions, love remains profoundly human.
