He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything.

𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗠𝗲 𝗔𝘁 𝗠𝗶𝗱𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁・❥・Maddy Perez & Nate Jacobs, Euphoria
"𝑆𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝑔𝑖𝑟𝑙𝑠 𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑡𝑎𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑙𝑜𝑣𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑝𝑎𝑖𝑛. 𝑆ℎ𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑛 𝑖𝑡 𝑖𝑠𝑛'𝑡." Iris has always known how to survive. At eighteen, she's everything East Highland thinks she is-reckless, untouchable, the girl with a reputation she doesn't bother correcting. She laughs louder, bites back harder, and never lets anyone get close enough to see what's underneath. By day, she's just another senior counting down the days until graduation. By night, she becomes someone else entirely-someone who dances for money, not attention. Someone who does whatever it takes to keep a roof over her head and her little sister safe. No one knows the truth. Except Maddie. Maddie Perez has always been there-closer than anyone, closer than Iris ever lets herself think about. Their friendship has never had boundaries. It's messy, magnetic, and blurs lines Iris refuses to define. Because defining it would mean risking it. And then there's Nate Jacobs-the one habit Iris never managed to break. Toxic, consuming, and impossible to ignore, he knows exactly how to pull her back in. With him, it's chaos. It's fire. It's everything she's learned to mistake for love. Caught between something real and something familiar, Iris is forced to confront the one thing she's spent years avoiding: Maybe love isn't supposed to hurt. Maybe the hardest thing she'll ever have to do... is choose something soft.
