A Slow-Burn Written To Inspire

Hatred For Bugs

Eve has spent her life afraid of two things: bugs and staying stuck.

Trapped in a career that no longer fulfills her and shaped by a childhood marked by bullying, Eve takes a once-in-a-lifetime chance to leave her familiar world behind. She travels abroad, determined to face her fears and reclaim her independence.

From the vibrant energy of Australia to the intensity of Madagascar and deep into Brazil’s Amazon rainforest, Eve is pushed far beyond her comfort zone. She confronts the creatures she dreads and the emotional walls she’s spent years building.

Along the way, she meets people drawn to her spirit. Some connections teach her what she wants. Others show her what she doesn’t.

It isn’t until she meets Stephen, a Brazilian tour guide with a grounded presence and quiet confidence, that everything begins to change. As their bond deepens, Eve must decide whether she’s brave enough to open her heart without losing herself.
