Rosetta Juliet Avonlea was born on April 1st, 1927, a date people laugh at, though nothing about her life has ever been a joke. With strawberry-blonde curls, freckled skin, and bright green eyes, she carries pieces of a father she never got to meet
For most of her life, things were almost normal, until they weren't.
Water freezes at her touch. Objects shift with her emotions, she can control elements, Small, impossible things that Rosetta tries to ignore, brushing them off like they don't matter. But they do. Because being different isn't something you can hide forever.
When the truth finally comes out, it changes everything.
Rosetta is a Peculiar.
But Rosetta isn't the kind of person who adapts quietly.
She's warmth and stubborn optimism wrapped into one-sunlight in human form, even when everything around her tells her not to be. And that becomes a problem the moment she meets Enoch O'Connor.
He's sharp-edged where she's soft, closed off where she's open, and irritated by her almost immediately. Where Rosetta talks, Enoch snaps. Where she tries, he resists. They clash from the start two opposites forced into the same space, neither willing to back down.
At first, it's nothing but tension. Annoyance. Arguments that spark too easily.
Then it shifts.
Somewhere between reluctant teamwork and quiet understanding, the edges start to soften. Annoyance turns into something harder to name. Something neither of them expected-nor particularly wants to admit.
Because it's easier to be enemies.
It's easier than figuring out why the one person who gets under your skin is also the one you start looking for in every room.
As Rosetta learns to control her abilities and navigate a world she was never prepared for, she also finds herself tangled in something far more complicated than danger
someone who challenges her, frustrates her... and slowly, inevitably, becomes something she can't ignore.
