Greenhill seems different from the idyllic place where Alyssa spent her childhood. Students are collapsing on campus, people are disappearing in the middle of the night and her new house mates are eerily quiet about the stories on the news. Is her recurring headache more than just essay stress? Is there something deeper that brought her here? Is this the wake up call she longed for, or a waking nightmare which has only just begun?

And Then, I Met You
"You know," Sage murmurs against my neck, his voice a little bashful, "my sister says hugs are the fastest way to make someone feel better." I let out a huff of breath and open my mouth to respond. But before I can reply, he adds softly. "You're one of the most amazing people I know. And no one, absolutely no one, should ever make you feel otherwise." I let my eyes close for a second, letting that settle in a place I didn't even realise had been empty. "Okay," I say quietly, pulling back just enough to see his face and then sinking deeper into his warmth, my hands curling into his jacket, clutching like I'm afraid he'll vanish if I let go. ────── ✦ She wasn't looking for love, just a little peace.

They heal. ✦ ────── If you are a reader like me, someone who loves comfort books, pure love stories, and heathy relationships that feel real and safe then maybe this book is just perfect for you 🍂
