After leaving her hometown, Iris Hale returns years later when her estranged mother falls ill. She plans to stay only long enough to help sell the family house-until she runs into Rowan Mercer, her former best friend and the boy she almost loved. Rowan never left. He stayed, took over his father's failing bookshop, and quietly carries the weight of promises he made too young. Their reunion is strained, threaded with things unsaid: the night Iris left without goodbye, the letter Rowan wrote but never sent, the belief they both carry that loving someone means eventually hurting them. As Iris settles into the town again, she and Rowan are forced together-renovating the bookshop, sharing late-night conversations, rediscovering the comfort of each other's presence. Their connection is undeniable, but both are held back by fear: Iris believes she ruins what she loves, and Rowan believes staying means being abandoned anyway. When Iris is offered a job that would take her away for good, the question becomes unavoidable-do they choose safety, or do they risk choosing each other?

Raised in cruelty and silence, she learned early how to survive by becoming invisible. What she does not know is that her fate was rewritten long before she could speak-by the Moon Goddess herself. Once bound to a destiny soaked in blood and betrayal, her soul was severed from its first bond and quietly woven into another. A forbidden one. A bond tied to a boy born of royal blood-a future Alpha-King whose fire was never meant to melt her frost. She grows up broken and unwanted, carrying scars no one was meant to see, unaware that the moon has been watching her all along. When their paths finally cross beneath a bleeding sky, the bond awakens-slow, dangerous, and undeniable. But healing is not linear, trust is not given freely, and love does not erase the past. As old wounds resurface and truths long buried begin to stir, she must learn that strength does not always roar-and that sometimes, survival itself is an act of defiance. A story of trauma and healing, found family and forbidden bonds, where love is earned, not claimed-and fate is only the beginning.

It's for everyone. Both those that have already tried recovery and those who are still fighting. I'm here to support. All of you, all of us. Because we all matter. I'm not a professional. Not a psychologist, psychiatrist. Just an ed survivor, writing from lived experience. Skip if you find these triggering - I completely understand. I believe that we all deserve support, and much better than the world that portrays serious diseases as "success stories" or "becoming healthier, prettier." We can do better. In short, this is a series about eating disorders and everything related to them: relapses, beginnings, the process, healing, society's influence, and recovery. I write about things that affect me as a person who has, and still is struggling with this little trap in her mind that says to give up. And that's why I'm creating this. We need something else besides the constant skinny obsession, don't we? Even if you decide not to read any of the chapters - I get it. If you don't agree with my point of view that I share in this project, that's alright. I'm not trying to convince anyone to my mind. I'm trying to let people with invisible, underrated struggles be heard, seen. And you're valid. You're enough. There're more of us. We are no longer silent. We're here for ourselves - that's already a big step toward healing. I'm not going to tell you that recovery is the same for everyone. I'm not going to tell you that people won't comment on your appearance. I'm not going to tell you that you'll always love yourself after recovery. But I am going to, at least try, to convince you that being alive is worth more than looking a certain way. You think feeling your bones is hot? You know what's more? BEING ALIVE. Healing is a process. And it's hard. But as long as you are alive, you always have a chance. I'm not one of the perfectly recovered ones. I see this trap. I've lived in it. I still do. But I'm not afraid of speaking about it - until someone finally hears me.
