Asher Hale has always been drawn to the shadows-an interest in folklore and the occult has kept him on the fringes of his small-town high school. But when Rowan Blackwood arrives, dark and enigmatic with secrets that cut deeper than his sharp smirk, Asher's world begins to unravel. Rowan's presence stirs something otherworldly in their sleepy town: whispers in the night, unseen eyes watching from the forest, and nightmares that feel all too real. Despite the danger, Asher can't ignore the magnetic pull he feels toward Rowan-a connection that seems both fated and cursed. Bound by forces neither fully understands, the two must confront the malevolent entity lurking in the shadows.

But the deeper they delve into the truth, the more Asher wonders: can love survive when it's built on whispers and lies?
