dreams we buried | on hold
When you've gone numb, what does it take to feel again?
****
After her mother's death, Thalia Jamieson is stuck in the fog of high-functioning depression. She goes through the motions of her life-doing what's expected but feeling nothing. Her dreams, her passions, even her sense of self have faded into a dull, gray existence. That is, until an English assignment pairs her with Caiden Walters, the boy she used to have a crush on.
Once the popular, well-liked football player, Caiden has withdrawn from everything he once cared about-his friends, his team, even his future. His slate-blue eyes, once full of life, now reflect only stormy bitterness, and he refuses to work with Thalia. But when a chance encounter at a graduation party leads them to reminisce, their walls begin to crumble, and they decide to feel something again-even if only physically.
But will that be the answer to everything? Or will it only remind them even though they can't feel anything their hearts are still capable of shattering into pieces?
