About the book

Marcela has built a solid career and a life of her own in São Paulo. Kerem lives in London, writes for television and carries a surname linked to a maritime empire he spent years trying to escape.

They meet in the Alps during an international conference. Curiosity becomes desire and intimacy, then a harder question than whether they want to stay together: because wanting is not the same as knowing how to build.

Across São Paulo, London, Istanbul, Frankfurt and the Alps, they discover that love, distance, career, family and belonging do not fit neatly into a single choice. How far does loving someone require adaptation — and when does adaptation turn one person into a visitor in the other’s life?

A contemporary romance about desire, autonomy and two whole people learning that building a shared life does not mean deciding who must give up their own.
