Years ago, Will Byers vanished-not into another world, but from his own. Fleeing an abusive home, he left behind everything he knew, including Mike Wheeler, the boy who held his heart. Now, Will is a celebrated actor whose face lights up movie screens across the country, but no spotlight is bright enough to chase away the shadows of his past. When tragedy draws him back to Hawkins for the holidays, Will finds himself face-to-face with the life he left unfinished. The secrets that drove him away refuse to stay buried, and the greatest role he's ever had to play might not be on camera-it might be finding the courage to tell Mike the truth: their love story was never over. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Inspired by tis the damn season & dorothea ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 mill #1 wike #2 holiday #2 holidayromance #3 byler #7 taylorswift
