❝ let's break down all of our walls,
right now i wanna see it all. ❞

Ayla Clermont, a young ballerina, has had expectations placed on her since the day she was born. Growing up in a family constantly in the public eye means that, whether she likes it or not, she's in the spotlight too. Some may see it as an advantage, while others as a curse.

For Ayla, it's a curse. The media has been after her since day one, and the pressure only intensifies under the guidance of her ballet instructor, one of the best in the country. The expectations placed on her are suffocating, and Ayla feels herself slowly losing the person she used to be.

Zayn Malik, a boy who has always lived life on his own terms, finds himself drawn to Ayla. Despite the borders she's carefully constructed around herself, he sees through them. With both of them tangled in the spotlight in different ways, he's determined to break down those borders-if she'll let him.

But Ayla isn't sure she can trust someone who isn't afraid to break the rules. As their lives collide, they both will have to decide if they're willing to risk everything for a chance at freedom-together.
