heartstopper × twilight: the cold hands and the warm heart
when nick nelson transfers to a quiet english school, he meets charlie spring - pale, shy, and impossibly kind.
nick thinks he's just fallen for another boy.
he doesn't realise he's falling into a century-old secret.
charlie's family don't eat. they don't age. and yet somehow, their house feels more alive than any place nick's ever known.
from the rain-soaked classrooms of windsor to the candle-lit glasshouse at the edge of town, this is a love story about restraint, discovery, and the strange warmth that only arrives when you touch the cold.
he's heartstopper soft.
he's twilight haunted.
together, they learn that you don't need a heartbeat to love.
