A Harlot’s Love: Star-crossed love by Selene Veyra

Beneath the shadow of a city bridge, Lora lives the life the world already wrote for her. With her two closest companions, she welcomes strangers for the only survival she knows, where nights bleed into mornings and desire is counted in transactions, not tenderness. Everything tilts the evening she meets Nick.
He arrives as just another client, bringing a friend to their small apartment for a night that dissolves into sweat and breath. Yet in the chaos of bodies, Lora senses something dangerous and rare: his touch isn’t only hunger, his gaze isn’t only lust. There is depth beneath his want, a secret gravity that draws her toward the possibility of holding more than the world has ever allowed.
Their connection grows in stolen minutes, whispered plans, quiet vows, the fragile belief that even a woman branded by her past might claim a future carved from love. But every step toward tenderness wakes a darker force, a man who will stop at nothing to keep them bound to the fate he enforces.
As the story tightens toward tragedy, one question burns like an unhealed wound: can a young prostitute condemned by the world and shadowed by her choices find her way to love, or was she doomed from the start?
