Lily Turncott didn't expect to meet Billy Collins the night everything fell apart. He's all smoke and music, the kind of beautiful that sneaks up on you-and he's leaving town by morning. But a late-night milkshake, a few too many blues songs, and an all-night conversation changes everything.
As seasons shift and Billy's band begins to rise, the distance between them grows-yet they keep circling back to each other. In stolen weekends, quiet confessions, and the weight of what they never say aloud, Lily and Billy find themselves caught in something that's almost love-but never quite easy.

Fragments of Us Two (English Version)
At the university where the hallways hide secrets and parties are battlegrounds for unspoken rivalries, Dean Withers has everything under control-or at least pretends to. President of the most influential fraternity on campus and host of a podcast that's gaining traction, he's mastered the art of commanding attention while keeping the cracks hidden. Lyanna Beaumont, on the other hand, finds comfort in the silence of books and the safety of the few people she trusts. After a rocky start at university, the last thing she expected was to be noticed by Dean-someone from a world completely different from her own. Through chance encounters, subtle glances, and conversations that reveal more than they should, the two begin to realize they might have more in common than they thought: a fear of trust, the weight of expectations, and the feeling that something inside them is breaking. But in a place where everything can be used against you, even the most honest emotions need to be protected. And when the masks begin to fall... what fragments will be left behind?
