Nina Dawson has spent years learning how to stay quiet, how to hide the parts of herself that hurt too much to explain. Love was never supposed to find her... not like this, not so suddenly, not so intensely.
Ethan Carson wasn't supposed to fall either. Not after everything he's seen, not after promising himself he'd never become the man he grew up fearing.
But one night, under city lights and unspoken truths, he does.
And now, they stand at the edge of something neither of them knows how to hold...
Him, afraid of losing her...
and her, afraid of being seen at all.
Because sometimes,
the scariest thing isn't falling in love-
it's believing you deserve it.
