Roxy has to be perfect. She has to make the change for her family. In school, she's popular, but she keeps her head down most of the time, doing what's expected of her, putting everyone first. If you ask her to do something, she will-no questions asked-even if that means putting herself last. She floats in the background, carrying everyone else's weight.
Vincent has known Roxy her whole life. He chooses her, always. He sees the cracks she hides, the weight she bears alone, and stays-through every sleepless night, every breakdown, every tear she never wanted anyone to see. He doesn't fix her; he just holds her together until she can hold herself.
It doesn't happen all at once. It happens in quiet moments, glances, and unspoken choices. Slowly, Roxy realizes that with him, she doesn't have to be perfect to be loved.
In a world that demands perfection, can Roxy finally let herself be chosen?
