She wore the wrong cardigan.
Said the wrong thing.
Played the wrong guitar.
But this time, Lily-Anne says NOâno to him, and no to his rosesâand it might be the most right thing sheâs ever done.
Still grieving her dad and drained by a controlling relationship, Lily walks away from everything, carrying only the guitar she can no longer bear to play.
In the quiet that follows, she reaches out to someone her father once knew.
What begins as a message might become something more. A tender short story of loss, music, and the first fragile spark of hope...possibly even love.

Sheâs a struggling musician seeking a mentor.
Heâs the brooding Englishman who lets her stay in his seaside cottage.
Neither are ready to fall in love againâbut in the silence of unspoken longing, the first fragile notes begin to stir.
Inspired by Sense and Sensibilityâs Colonel Brandon and Marianne, Madly Deeply Always is a modern coastal romance with slow-burn tension, coffeehouse vibes, the melancholy heart of a BBC period drama, and just a hint of Harry Potter nostalgia.
In a cosy seaside cottage in England, a heartbroken girl upstairs and the man haunted by his past below try not to fall in loveâuntil music draws them together.
