And when she finally breaks free, the threats don't stop - they multiply.
Until she walks in.
Itsuki: a flawless transfer student from Japan with eyes like moonlight and a voice like honey. When she sits beside Mimi, everything changes.
But healing isn't easy. And falling in love when you've been shattered takes courage Mimi isn't sure she has.
In a world that tried to silence her, will Mimi find her voice again... in the girl who makes her heart race?
