Freya Hayes has always lived in the quiet spaces.
The girl with the jet black curls, the silver nose ring, the tarot tattoo on her arm, and the wyvern on her thigh. The girl who studies psychology and law because she wants to understand people without letting them understand her.
She does not date.
She does not trust easily.
She does not touch chaos.
Beau Maxwell is chaos.
A hockey boy with a heart too big for his own good. Loud, warm, affectionate, and always in trouble. The kind of boy who makes everyone feel seen. The kind of boy Freya avoids on instinct.
Until the day she walks into Allie's apartment and Beau drops his granola bar because he cannot stop staring at her.
Allie warns Freya to stay away.
Allie warns Beau even harder.
Neither of them listen.
Forced tutoring sessions turn into late night conversations.
Late night conversations turn into almost touches.
Almost touches turn into secrets they cannot hide.
He falls first.
She falls harder.
And when the truth comes out, it threatens everything.
A forbidden slow burn filled with tension, softness, jealousy, found family, and the kind of love that changes everything.
