Warren is reckless, unreadable, and surrounded by rumors that make people run. But the more she's warned to stay away, the more she wants to know why he hides behind those walls...and why he can't seem to stay away from her either. ────୨ৎ──── Warren Reid is a name everyone in town knows, and not for good reasons. He left a student unconscious before disappearing into juvie, and now that he's back, the rumors are worse than ever. With a past that whispers warnings and a reputation that silences rooms, Warren is used to being feared, not understood. He trusts no one, lets no one in, and only keeps two people close. Emotions are weaknesses in his world, and vulnerability has never been an option. Until her. Arabella Winters is the picture of perfection and the last girl anyone would expect to cross paths with someone like Warren. Smart, sweet, and sheltered, she follows every rule her parents set, never once stepping out of line. She's the kind of girl who still believes in good graces, bedtime curfews, and fairy tale endings. But one knock on Warren's door throws her into his world, and nothing is the same after that. Everyone says he's trouble, but Arabella doesn't see the monster they all fear. She sees someone broken, someone hiding wounds no one else bothers to look for. What starts as innocent curiosity soon becomes an intense pull neither of them can resist. She's drawn to the shadows he hides in, and he can't stay away from the light she doesn't even know she carries. Now Arabella has to ask herself: is she helping Warren escape the darkness...or is she just letting it swallow her too?

Renna Rose Lancaster is the girl people stare at like she belongs in a glass case, carved with angel-soft beauty, a life airbrushed into unattainable perfection. But Renna knows perfection is nothing but a golden prison, coated in pretty lies that keep her muted and small. Her days are rehearsed into something delicate and careful, her voice cropped into harmless replies that soothe everyone except her own skin. She is tired of being the pretty prop everyone tries to claim. She is tired of sculpting her smile into something pretty enough to display. She craves something wild enough to bruise. She wants a tale that scars. Someone who sees the restless girl she keeps smothered under the silk. Aadam Alaric Callahan is the boy people look at like he walked straight out of a storm, a warning shaped into a body that keeps the world stepping back. But Aadam knows the storm is only armor forged to bury the wounds tearing at him in the dark. His nights collapse into frantic patterns that scrape at his sanity, his thoughts twisting into brutal corridors he cannot escape alone. He is tired of being the haunted figure everyone whispers about. He is tired of forcing his heartbeat to mimic cold iron while the rest of him crumbles toward collapse. He longs for something fierce enough to drag him back from the brink. He needs a light that stays bright even when the night closes in. Someone who can see the fractured boy trembling under the thunder. She is desperate to shred the script that strangled her voice. He is desperate to matter even when the echoes stop clapping. And together, they're not just falling, they're bleeding into each other's worlds until the edges break apart and the danger becomes something they cannot outrun.

And this time, it might be both of them.

November pulls her head back from mine, resting it against the wall, and bats her lashes up at me. "Say please."

A sunshine girl. A serious man. Multiple chanced meetings that changed everything. Aurora Blaire wasn't looking for anything serious-especially not while on a girls' holiday.
