The Moment That Lingers

A glance. A pause. That was all it took.

Set in the quiet coastal town of Barth, The Moment That Lingers is a dark romance about power that never raises its voice and love that refuses to become shelter. Kathrin moves through a town that prefers silence over truth and proximity over consent. When intimacy turns into control and attention becomes a structure, she chooses disruption over belonging.

This novel explores desire without rescue, romance without ownership, and loneliness without apology. It is not a story about healing. It is a story about choosing oneself even when the cost is isolation, and about the kind of darkness that does not destroy, but protects.

Atmospheric, restrained, and emotionally uncompromising, The Moment That Lingers leaves space where answers are usually demanded—and lingers long after the final page.
