    Summary

    Years after Nora toppled both the Brotherhood of Steel and the Institute, the Commonwealth has transformed. Trade routes flourish, settlements thrive, and a new golden age has begun. With the Minutemen restored, the Railroad integrated, and Trinity College standing where the old world once burned, the future has never looked brighter.
    But for a drifter named Rose, that peace comes with ghosts.
    Returning to Diamond City after more than twenty years, Rose carries the weight of a childhood tragedy—the unsolved murder of her parents, and the synthetic detective who delivered the news. Hoping for closure, she brings a collection of rare music to Diamond City Radio… but instead is offered the chance to start something of her own: a new radio station, a new purpose, and maybe even a new home.
    As Rose reconnects with a past she barely remembers, she finds herself at the heart of a city reborn—and face to face with the man she never thought she’d see again.
    What begins as discomfort becomes reluctant respect, late-night conversations, and something even more dangerous:
    Hope.
    Because healing takes time. Trust takes longer. And love—especially here—might be the slowest burn of all.
