"It's much harder to stay hidden from the Dark Lord when you're in love with a Death Eater." Evelyn Hawkings' parents were well-known Death Eaters, but they died when the Dark Lord fell and Eve was only an infant. Now fifteen years have passed and Voldemort is back, and Eve has changed her last name to stay hidden from him. She lives a quiet life, staying out of trouble and avoiding the life of a Death Eater...but everything changes when she meets Draco Malfoy. He's the bad boy, the guy everyone avoids if they know what's good for them. But what happens when the bad boy meets someone completely different? What happens when Draco Malfoy, against all odds, falls head over heels for one girl? Which will come first, the girl he loves...or his reputation as a Death Eater? What will he do when he finds the bird that can finally set him free? A Draco Malfoy love story.

Harry gets a strange message one day when Draco accidentally texts the wrong number.

I, like all others, am a victim. To life. To living. The endless circle of living and dying. But you. You never change. And me? I will die with no one knowing who I really was. My true self. Slowly. I wilt. And soon. Death. ____________________________________ [[[WARNING]]] This book contains topics of self harm, depression, self loathing and/or depreciation, blood, violence, and sexual scenes.

The war is over, and it's time to return to school to make up the seventh year that so many missed. But there are those who won't be returning. Draco Malfoy does not want to go back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. That is among the few things of which he is absolutely certain. He knows the empty seats at meals and in classes will remind everyone- and himself, too- of what he has done. Draco is broken, maybe beyond repair. Guilt weighs down on him always, and nightmares chase him in his sleep. Images of the war, and of all of those who died because of what he's done, rise up in his mind, and every night he wakes up screaming and sometimes crying. If there is a way to put the pieces of his heart, soul, and mind together again, it won't be easy, and no matter what, he will never be quite the same again. But Draco's not the only one who was damaged by the war. Harry Potter is now the Boy-Who-Lived-Twice, but he's not the same anymore. He spends most of his time alone. In many ways he and Draco are the same. He is constantly feeling that he is the reason everyone died, and he has nightmares too. Memories of those he lost, who lost their lives for him at the Battle of Hogwarts, haunt him during the day. At night they scream at him that it's all his fault. Everyone worships him as the savior of the Wizarding World, but he doesn't feel like a hero. When these two broken boys come together, they will find understanding, comfort, and friendship in the most unlikely places, and maybe just a bit more.
