  • Slow Burn

    You can’t rewrite the past — but you can fight for a second chance. Lesley’s life once glittered with success — a confident marketing executive in Sydney with a promising future. But beneath the polish lies a slow descent: an affair with her charismatic colleague, Alex, blurs the line between passion and self-destruction. When she later finds comfort with Gavin, the dependable man who offers everything she thought she wanted, a single discovery shatters her carefully built world.  As Lesley’s past unravels and her choices catch up with her, she must face the woman she has become and the truths she’s long denied. Slow Burn is an intimate portrait of desire, deceit, and self-redemption — where love can both ignite and consume.
