Two years. That's how long Raj had been jobless since he graduated from university, and it had been slowly devouring him - inside and out. So when a job from out of town lands at his feet, he jumps at the chance and never looks back. Leaving behind everything he knew to be someone, finally! But that future comes with a steep, steep price... The people and the town range from quirky to strange! A small price to pay for being self-sufficient... right?

Harry can't stand Louis and the feeling is mutual. But thunderstorms, drinking games, and late-night dares have a way of breaking down walls. There's a very fine line between hate and love when teasing turns into laughs, dares turn into confessions, and somehow, two people with complicated pasts seem to share more than a few scars.

In the vast silence of the desert, where stars stretch endlessly above and the road disappears into the horizon, Ivy is chasing something she can't quite name. A rare celestial event. A final promise to her late sister. A reason to keep moving forward. But fate has other plans. A wrong turn leads to a collision-both literal and life-altering-leaving her stranded with Evan, a stranger whose easy smile hides a secret he's not ready to share. With no cell service, no map, and only one car between them, they set off on an unexpected journey across the desert-from ghost towns and golden-hour canyons to laughter beneath towering metal jackrabbits and quiet moments that feel like both too much and not enough. Ivy wants control. Direction. Closure. Evan wants to see the world before it slips away. What begins as friction becomes connection. What starts as accident becomes something neither of them saw coming. As miles blur behind them and walls begin to fall, Ivy discovers that love doesn't always come with a future, and Evan learns that being truly seen might be all that matters. Because some stars burn brightest just before they fade. And some hearts are meant to meet-even if only for a little while.
