Fern Blossom is a 19 year college student living at home with her manipulating mother. She loves writing and reading novels but can't because she has three high demanding jobs that can barely feed two people and pay her mothers bills at the same time but something happens at one of her jobs and her displeased mother gave her one week to find another job but at the same time has a camping trip to Casper's wood's with her friend group. She decides it would be an exciting experience to go to Casper's Wood and perhaps get a break from everything. But a few days before she left for casper's woods she had got several warnings from strangers in dreams to not go but like any other person she ignored them and thought of them as her self conscious worried about her mother's well-being. The day we go is the night of a beautiful full moon when we are just getting started in our week-long journey in Casper's woods. Once everyone fell asleep Fern had an idea of laying by a waterfall looking up to the opening of the tree watching where the gorgeous moon livened up the sky. Little did she know many beats from untold stories watched her that night and didn't stop watching her... (Please read the information in the Prologue)

BOOK 1 in the Drowning/Bully Standalone Series. WARNING: This book contains intense bullying, explicit scenes, triggering language, violence, and psychological content. "You need to call off this party," I boldly told my stepbrother in the kitchen. He cocked his head attractively, his thin eyes scrutinizing me. His upper lip curled up in that seductive habit that I had become familiar with. "And why should I do that?" he murmured. His eyes were come-to-bed-with-me stunning, inviting with me with that inescapable pull, and damn if I didn't wet my panties. Get it together, Madison, said my insidious voice. I almost complied with that command until Caden went on and said something that left me breathless before his egotistical smirk. "Will you be my snack tonight?" He hates you. Don't forget that. I was reminded by my subconscious. *** Caden always goes extreme to make my life a living hell since after our parents got married four years ago. Although I'm similar to my stepbrother-the only difference between us is: I am a surreptitious bully, and Caden's a blatant bully. I wonder how sharing the same apartment for our first year at Stanford University will turn out. Honestly? I'm not eager to find out. Step into an adventure of passion, forgiveness, and second chances in this compelling two-part saga. This is Caden and Madison's story.
