Better With You Here: Kintsugi Hearts (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798176870701)

Lana Nguyen is drowning in the neon haze of Las Vegas nightlife-promoting clubs by day, faking desire by night, and coming home to fights and silence. Exhausted, broken, and questioning who she even is anymore, she's one slammed door away from giving up.

Roy O'Malley is a rookie cop still finding his footing: chasing suspects, learning the ropes, and carrying the weight of every life he couldn't save. Behind the rough exterior and relentless jokes is a man who's been burned before. He's on his own quiet journey to find peace in the storm.

When their worlds collide in the most unexpected way, Lana and Roy become each other's unlikely lifeline. Through grief, family chaos, cultural clashes, and raw vulnerability, they discover that healing isn't about being perfect. Sometimes it's just about showing up.

Inspired by the Japanese art of kintsugi-the practice of repairing broken pottery with gold so the cracks become part of its beauty-Better With You Here is a tender, steamy, laugh-through-tears contemporary romance about second chances, self-acceptance, and the messy, miraculous way two bruised hearts can finally feel whole.
