A reality where we are tangled up against each other. "You should be al...-" A gasp escapes my mouth as he lifts me up or rather goes further low for me. His hands, back on my waist.

The places that come to life because of him. "I should be allowed to touch you." He rasps in my neck. My back arches up and I close my eyes at his declaration. At his domination. At his intoxication.

Surrounded by classmates he doesn't recognize, stalked by echoes of a past he can't grasp, Maxwell begins to rebuild himself from the chemical residue of who he used to be. Among those helping him: Sam, the soft-spoken friend who might be something more; Falk, the chaotic heart slowly growing up; Lando, the unbothered genius cracked open by grief; and Mr. Roth-Maxwell's former chemistry professor, protector, and the man whose presence feels dangerously like home.
