Unfolded in Ubud

A Second Bloom Romance

By: Sofia Hayes, Susan Harbourt

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

⭐ A Scottish divorce lawyer finds healing, love, and the courage to surrender in Bali’s lush heart. ⭐

For fifteen years, Fiona MacLeod has helped women walk away from broken marriages—while quietly ignoring her own shattered dreams. Now, burned out and brittle at fifty-one, she escapes to Ubud for a paper-folding retreat, hoping silence and art can stitch her back together.

What she doesn’t expect is Omar Rahman, an Egyptian sculptor whose presence is as grounding as it is unsettling. With every fold of paper and every sculpted curve, Fiona is challenged to see strength not as control, but as surrender.

Between Bali’s vibrant markets, sacred temples, and the gentle rhythm of creation, Fiona begins to rediscover the parts of herself she’s long buried. And as her connection with Omar deepens, she must decide: will she keep hiding behind the walls she’s built, or risk unfolding her heart in the most vulnerable—and beautiful—way of all?
