Eleane Scott lives her life between the lines of poetry, where words carry a truth that feels safer than the world outside. As a college sophomore, she's mastered the art of being invisible-until an unexpected partnership in a poetry class forces her into the orbit of Alik Jordan. He's guarded and enigmatic, with a presence that seems to fill any space he enters.
For Alik, grief is a quiet shadow he can't shake. A past loss has left him detached, unwilling to let anyone too close. But Eleane's quiet intensity and honest love for poetry draw him in, sparking a connection that neither anticipated. What begins as a reluctant project partnership becomes a series of quiet conversations and tentative steps into vulnerability, where walls slowly crumble and both discover parts of themselves they thought were lost.
As their bond deepens, so does the conflict between the paths they're meant to follow. Eleane is tethered by family obligations, while Alik is offered an escape to rebuild himself far away. They must decide if their love is worth rewriting their futures for-or if some stories are meant to be left unwritten.
Never send is a heart-wrenching, slow-burn romance about love, loss, and the bittersweet beauty of two people finding each other at the wrong time.
