Bailey is 14 and has endured a life of severe abuse, neglect, and trauma. He remembers bits and pieces. A house with soft blankets. A lady who smiled a lot. A boy who let him play with him. He remembers the way his dad used to hold him, like he mattered. But that was a long time ago. People leave. That's what they do. Bailey has always felt disconnected from the world, being Autistic and needing stability is something he once had and needs again. Caspian Elwood, a successful actor with a thriving career and a loving family, thought he had his life figured out. Married to his wife Lauren for twelve years, they've built a beautiful home with their two children, Finn, 14, and Eden, 8. But when a late-night call from a social worker shakes the foundation of his world, Caspian is faced with a devastating truth: his son Bailey, the one he's been supporting from a distance, has been neglected, possibly for years. Because maybe this time, someone came back. Will this make or break the family, or will this be the piece they were missing?

They say you only fall in love once. For Ody and Mano, that once changed everything. In a world where love isn't always safe, and pain comes hand-in-hand with desire, two straight boys find each other in the middle of grief, trauma, and secrets that refuse to stay buried. Mano doesn't do vulnerability. Aggressive, tattooed, cold, and impossible to like, he plays the villain on purpose, because being hated is safer than being seen... and losing someone again would destroy him. Ody can't help but care. Bright, extroverted, charming and painfully sincere, he's the kind of boy who notices when you're hurting, even when you pretend you're not. He remembers your birthday, offers you the last slice, and apologizes even when it's not his fault. When their lives collide, nothing about them makes sense, except the way they keep gravitating toward each other. Sparks fly, but so do secrets, buried trauma, and a love neither of them is ready for. One of them hides behind silence. The other hides behind smiles. Together, they're wildfire. But not all fires survive the storm. The forbidden love between a broken boy and a lost one. A bond that refuses to break, even as the world tries to tear them apart. 🖤COMPLETED🖤 !
