Almost Still Yours

Almost Still Yours is a quiet, aching romance about two people who never stopped loving each other—but had to learn how to love themselves first. Ethan Clarke never understood why Lena Hart walked away from their relationship. All he knew was the silence she left behind, and the pieces of himself he had to gather without her. When a university project forces them to work together again, old memories resurface in small, quiet ways—accidental glances, almost-words, unfinished emotions. But Lena carries fears she has never spoken aloud. Caught in a relationship that looks perfect from the outside but suffocates her from within, she starts losing her voice, her choices, and her sense of self. Ethan becomes a reminder of the girl she used to be—brave, soft, and honest. As tension builds and old wounds reopen, both of them must confront the truths they spent years avoiding. Love alone isn't enough. Timing matters. Healing matters. Choosing yourself matters. This is a story about broken rhythm, unfinished conversations, and the gentle possibility of second chances. Emotional, intimate, and atmospheric, Almost Still Yours captures what it means to let go, to return, and to start again—slowly, quietly, and with honesty.
