Careless Whispers, Book Two of the Quiet Whispers Trilogy

Careless Whispers, opens the door to the story behind the heartbreak —

the spark,

the pull,

the gravity that made letting go so hard in the first place.

This collection explores the affair from the inside:

the quiet rules,

the broken ones,

the unexpected tenderness,

and the emotional fallout you can’t outrun no matter how fast you try.

These poems move through desire,

secrecy,

vulnerability,

and the complicated chemistry ,

between two people who should have walked away but didn’t.

It’s intimate. It’s uncomfortable.

It’s brutally honest.

And it gives voice to the feelings that often stay trapped between the lines.

Where The Quiet Calendar documented the aftermath —

the silence, the ache, the rebuilding —

Careless reveals the storm that came first.

The moments that felt like electricity.

The choices that changed everything.

The weight of wanting more than you were allowed to want.

This is not a book about scandal.

 It’s a book about truth —

 the kind we usually keep hidden.

A book about desire and consequence, longing and loss, and the impossible spaces between right and wrong.

If quiet was the wound,

Careless is the moment the blade touched skin.

You’re invited to step inside the story.

Another key turned.
