43 parts Complete Lacy Costa prefers the quiet. A reserved music student with piercing blue eyes and a voice that could stop time, she keeps her head down and her heart guarded. Most days, no one notices her at Tree Hill High-and that's just how she likes it.
Then Nathan Scott walks into her world.
The school's golden boy. Star athlete. Loud, confident, and everything Lacy isn't. Their paths were never meant to cross-until a morning in the music room changes everything. Nathan sees something in Lacy no one else has, and Lacy sees a side of Nathan he's kept hidden beneath the swagger and spotlight.
Bound by a shared number-23, the age her father died and the number on Nathan's jersey-the two form an unexpected connection. But with secrets, scars, and reputations getting in the way, they'll have to figure out if what they've found is real... or just another beautiful, broken song.
