Omschrijving

In the glow of thousands of lanterns, two guarded souls must decide whether love is worth the risk.

The riverside city is preparing for its annual lantern festival—a night of floating wishes, glowing skies, and whispered hopes carried by flame. For Rhianna, the festival is more than tradition. As an art teacher and lantern designer, she believes every handmade lantern holds a secret dream. This year, she has been commissioned to create the central lantern—the heart of the celebration.

But Rhianna no longer believes in love the way she once did. A past betrayal left her cautious, careful, and quietly afraid of being "too much" for someone who prefers order over emotion.

Neo is exactly that someone.

A meticulous architect specializing in heritage restoration, Neo values structure, precision, and control. Months earlier, he and Rhianna clashed over a historic building renovation—she accused him of stripping away its soul; he dismissed her vision as impractical sentimentality. Their disagreement left tension unresolved… and something else unspoken.

High above them, Mike—the Modern Cupid—receives a new cosmic assignment from the Love Council. His mission: help these two almost-strangers find their way to each other. Disguised as a festival coordinator, he nudges circumstances, orchestrates proximity, and attempts to accelerate their connection.

But when a misstep reignites old insecurities and emotional distance grows, Mike is reminded of a crucial truth: connection must breathe.

As the festival night unfolds, wind threatens the lantern release, structures strain under pressure, and Neo and Rhianna are forced to work side by side. Under flickering lights and rising tension, honesty breaks through pride. Walls begin to fall. Confessions surface. And in the sky above the river, two lanterns rise—intertwined.

Love Under Lanterns is a tender, emotionally rich romance about vulnerability, second chances, and the delicate balance between logic and passion. Blending heartfelt human connection with a touch of celestial intervention, this installment in The Modern Cupid series explores a powerful lesson:

Love needs light—but it also needs patience.

Perfect for readers who adore slow-burn romance, festival settings, emotional healing, and stories where fate meets free will.
