Two best friends, both haunted by their pasts, must navigate their growing feelings for each other while facing the ghosts of grief and trauma during their freshman year of college.

                                *  *  *  *  * 

Savannah never expected her freshman year of college to be this complicated before it even began. Struggling with trauma and just a month out of a mental health facility, she's trying to find her way while keeping everyone at arm's length. The last thing she needs? Realising she's in love with her best friend, Cameron, who's been there for her through it all.

Cameron has his own battles to fight. After losing his sister and almost losing Savannah, his best friend he's secretly in love with, he's haunted by the past. To escape the pain, he throws himself into hockey, becoming one of the top players on the team, hoping to outrun his grief. But when a school assignment pairs him with Savannah, he's forced to confront everything he's been avoiding.

As they spend more time together, their feelings for each other grow stronger. But love has never been easy--especially when the past threatens to pull them under.

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023
