Without Apology

Loly spent years believing that love was supposed to fit inside rules everyone else could understand. Then she met Borys. With him, she feels safe, understood, and free to be herself. But just as their relationship begins to grow, Mike returns to her life—the man from her past whose presence awakens feelings she never completely left behind. For the first time, Loly has to face a truth she has been afraid to admit: she is bisexual, and her heart has room for two very different kinds of love. But loving Borys and Mike doesn't mean the three of them can simply ignore jealousy, insecurity, or the expectations of the people around them. If they want a chance at something real, they will have to build their own rules—without lies, secret meetings, manipulation, or competition. Borys fears he will always be second. Mike must confront the fact that their shared history does not give him ownership of Loly's heart. And Loly must learn that honesty doesn't mean everyone will understand her choices. As jealousy threatens to pull them apart and outside voices demand that Loly choose, the three discover that love cannot survive through control. It survives through trust, communication, boundaries, and the freedom to choose one another every day. Their relationship may not look like anyone else's idea of love. But it is theirs.
