The Soft Chaos Series #1 Shane Isabelle Freswell never planned to fall in love-not when crowds made her chest tighten, not when loud noises brought back memories she tried so hard to forget. And not when she was unwillingly pulled into a band she never wanted to join. There, she met Kyrian Dominic Ramirez-a strict, serious student leader and the band's lead guitarist. He noticed her hesitation, her silence, and the way she flinched at sudden sounds. Without meaning to, he became the calm she slowly learned to trust. But time has a cruel way of revealing truths that hearts refuse to see. Dreams began to grow in different directions, responsibilities weighed heavier, and the paths they once walked side by side slowly split into two. It will break you until you realize that the cruelest part of love is not losing it-but remembering how real it once was, and how, for a moment, they chose to taste the bittersweet of life... even if it meant walking away.
