At 25, Iris has spent her entire life on Lagona, a beautiful island with a tight-knit community that feels more like family. She's always believed she belonged here and never dreamed of leaving, despite those closest to her urging her to expand her horizons. 

Her world turns upside down when a man from her past resurfaces, whose departure years ago left an incredible mark. As old emotions resurface and new beginnings come to light Iris also finds herself drawn to a new arrival on the island, an unfamiliar face that challenges her perceptions. 

Torn between the love she once knew and the promise of a new chapter, Iris must navigate her feelings and decide where she truly belongs. Anchored by the bonds of friendship and familiarity, Iris's journey is one of self-discovery and the timeless question of whether home is a place or a person.

She leaves home one warm summer evening with nothing but a yellow backpack filled with her coveted dad's letters he's been sending her for the past months, and some bare necessities. She's determined to seek him out and go live with him down on the West Coast, where he has a temporary job. The last thing April expects is almost being hit by a car. The owner of the vehicle? Her classmate, Dave Rivera, a troubled boy whom she almost never talked to before, and who can't be more different than her.

Brave Enough To Love Again by CalliopeBlythe
80 parts Complete
I stood with my back to her, shielding her, and my murderous eyes stared down at the poor excuse of a man, promising unimaginable pain if he dared to move or even flinch. The enormity of control it took me to suppress the impulse to eradicate the piece of scum, who dared to even think about laying a hand on a woman, was inconceivable. My whole body was trembling with rage. The guy was intimidated by the fury in my eyes and stumbled back to his intoxicated friends who were too dazed to understand the situation. I was disappointed and relieved at the same time that the chaos didn't end in a fist fight. When I turned around to console her, she was gone. And as I looked around, I saw her back just leaving the bar through the entrance. I hurried out to follow her. She walked ahead of me aimlessly and disoriented like a wounded animal that had just escaped the claws of death. My heart ached for her. I found a kindred soul in her. She evidently had been wounded in the past. Just like me. But in an even worse way than I had been hurt, and it angered me, that someone had dared to harm her. *** Eden Marie Simmons is still recovering after escaping an abusive relationship when she meets Keane, the broody and enigmatic neighbor who is shrouded in mystery.
