Before I Disappear - Part 1

Kiley Hart is thirty-four and dying.

In the face of death, Kiley chased distraction—seeking sensation, connection, and control in fleeting encounters with strangers. Each one let her feel something, even if just for a moment. Or feel nothing at all. But Julian Lennox isn’t just one of those strangers. He’s something worse: a man who sees her too clearly.

Before I Disappear is an emotionally raw, quietly devastating story about sex, secrecy, survival, and the defiant hope that even a doomed connection can still be real—and worth it.
