1st book- Prequel to Beyond Grey Shadows

NEW CHAPTERS- rewritten !!

Greya Matthews has already endured a lifetime of loss.
Her grades and soccer talent could take her anywhere after graduation, but she feels tied to the only family she has left-her younger brother and her grandmother. Since her parents' deaths, Greya has carried the weight of responsibility on her shoulders, sacrificing her dreams until she's forgotten what it feels like to choose herself. That is, until she begins spending more time with Becker Reeves.
Becker Reeves is the school's golden boy-or so everyone believes. He's the kind of guy every girl wants, except Greya. She sees past the charm, past the perfect image, and senses something darker. She pushes him in ways no one else dares to, and that terrifies him. Because letting her in means exposing secrets he's kept hidden for far too long. Yet, there's something about her he can't walk away from.
Then comes the tragedy.
One moment that changes everything-shattering who they thought they were and forcing them to confront the truth. Together, Greya and Becker must face a new reality... one that will either forge them into something stronger or break them beyond repair.All Rights Reserved
