Strategic Romance: Where Two Hearts Learn to Build a Future Without Losing the Present — Book 8

What if lasting love is not only something we feel-but something we learn to build?When Claire Bennett meets Daniel Mercer because of an empty chair, neither can predict where the encounter will lead. Attraction brings them together, but creating a life together will require something deeper: honest conversations, difficult choices, mutual respect, boundaries, compromise, and the courage to change their plans when life changes them.From first attraction and commitment to marriage, family, career decisions, conflict, loss, aging, and enduring devotion, Strategic Romance follows two people as they discover that planning for love does not mean controlling it.It means protecting each other's freedom while building something shared.A thoughtful and emotionally mature love story, Strategic Romance explores how two independent people can create a future together without sacrificing who they are in the present.Because the beginning may be chance-but what follows is something we choose.
