Piper Walsh has always been the fixer. The one who keeps it together, no matter what life throws at her. So when an internship lands her in New York City for her final year at Columbia, she packs her bags and promises her brothers she'll be fine. Then her housing falls through-and she ends up living with five inked-up, too-hot-for-their-own-good bikers. They're reckless. Messy. Completely inappropriate. And somehow, the only people in the city who feel like home. Except for Greyson Lowell. He's the quiet one. The one who doesn't look at her. Doesn't talk to her. Definitely doesn't want her there. He keeps his distance like it's a full-time job-until he doesn't. Until one stolen moment changes everything. Piper knows heartbreak when she sees it. Greyson's drowning in it. And the closer she gets, the more he pushes her away. But Piper didn't come this far to let one broken boy scare her off. Even if he might be the one thing that could break her in return.

"You drew stars around my scars, but now I'm bleeding..." Gaia Ashmore has lived under the radar of her strict mother all her life. Every aspect of her life - from her fashion sense to her career - is controlled by her mother. And even when Gaia moves across continents for university to somehow lessen her mother's pressure on her, it seems as if she can't escape from her family roots. Ilkay Muller is the antonym of organised. Despite his high school grades only scraping his acceptance into his first choice of university, his intelligence stumps many. With an obscure past and severe daddy issues, Ilkay hopes to make it through without any more added trauma. But a tiny incident can change the fate of the universe forever. And while finding running from their pasts and escaping old wounds, Gaia and Ilkay experience the unexpected. Their tiny incident. Love. • • • "Missing you comes in waves. Tonight, I'm drowning."
