Forever Connected

<p><strong>FOREVER CONNECTED</strong></p><p><strong>Some loves can only be measured by what they survive.</strong></p><p>It's December at La Hacienda a Costa Rican coffee plantation nestled in mountains that have witnessed three generations of secrets. Vivika-fifty-two battle-tested finally clear-sighted-waits for him.</p><p>Six months since Marbella. Since the shooting. Since Bash walked away from his father's empire and lost his sight protecting her.</p><p>When he arrives with Priss Luiz and Renata he's different. Vulnerable in ways he never allowed himself to be. The eyepatch is gone. The pirate swagger softened. He can identify coffee by scent alone navigate by sound and touch read her moods from the cadence of her breathing.</p><p>He can't see her face anymore. But he sees her completely.</p><p>The jade man she's worn for thirty years finally reveals its full story. It was never just protection. Never just evidence. It was a promise made before she was born-by men who built empires on stolen things and sons who spent their lives trying to break the cycle.</p><p>Bash is carrying its twin. Always has been.</p><p>As the winter solstice approaches and their chosen family gathers-the Pussy Posse flying in from London Theo arriving from the mountains Alejandro discovering truths about his own blood-one final letter from Amílcar surfaces. What was stolen. What was recovered. What connects them all across decades and continents.</p><p>But the past isn't finished with them yet.</p><p>When Bash's father appears at La Hacienda-one final test one final threat-Vivika doesn't flinch. Neither does Bash. They've both learned that some battles you fight together standing side by side even when one of you can't see what's coming.</p><p>The blessing happens at the chapel as fireflies witness what humans feared to name. Not a wedding. Something deeper. A declaration that connection doesn't require perfection. It requires presence. Choice. The courage to stay.</p><p><strong>Forever Connected is a story about:</strong></p><p>What happens after sacrifice. How grief transforms into gratitude. The difference between being rescued and being met. Chosen family versus blood. And discovering that the deepest connection isn't about two people completing each other-it's about two whole people choosing to walk alongside each other eyes open or not.</p><p><strong>Perfect for readers who love:</strong></p><ul><li>Love stories that earn their happy endings</li><li>Heroes transformed by sacrifice and loss</li><li>International settings from Costa Rica to Portugal</li><li>Chosen family and friendships that span decades</li><li>Complex multi-generational sagas with secrets finally revealed</li><li>Women who claim their power without apology</li><li>Stories where vulnerability becomes the greatest strength</li><li></li></ul><p><strong>Forever Connected is the third and final book in The Between Journeys Trilogy.</strong></p><p>In Book One <em>Between Journeys</em> Vivika learned that autonomy isn't given-it's claimed. She found her own true north between two impossible men.</p><p>In Book Two <em>Mountains of Love</em> she discovered that independence isn't the destination. She stepped into the space someone else's sacrifice created and made it her own.</p><p>In Book Three <em>Forever Connected</em> she learns the hardest lesson of all: connection doesn't mean losing yourself. It means being whole enough to stand alongside someone else-and brave enough to stay.</p><p></p><p><strong>The Between Journeys Trilogy follows one woman's journey from dependence to independence to connection-becoming whole.</strong></p><p>Three decades. Three continents. Three loves.</p><p>Vivi loved dangerously. Lost courageously. Found herself entirely. And in the end discovered that some connections transcend everything-blood time sight and the boundaries we build to keep ourselves safe.</p>
