After Riven's life fell apart losing friends, family, and the person he thought he was - he ends up in the quiet beach town of Windlow, living with his uncle Nick. His parents failed him in ways that can't be undone, and he's trying to forget, to start over, to be someone new.
Then he meets Vinnie. The captain of the hockey team, hard to like and just as hard to really know. Everyone sees confidence and charm, but Riven sees something else - a kind of loneliness that feels too familiar. Vinnie's the type of person who carries his past like it's stitched into his skin, pretending it doesn't hurt.
As the two of them grow closer, secrets start to surface - the kind that don't stay buried no matter how far you run.
Will they save each other from drowning, or will the tide pull them under?

Bloom in the wake of Ruin ⚣ ✔️
"Excuse me, sir. I think you may have dropped these?" It was the voice I noticed first. Smooth, a little amused, and low enough to draw me out of myself. Then I saw him. Dirty blonde hair that looked like waves crashing down the sides of his face, and freckles like splattered paint across his fair skin. A silver hoop in his nose, another in his brow, both catching the light. And those eyes... electric blue, staring into my green ones with intensity. - After a heartbreaking loss, Killian has spent two years shielding himself from love, or any human contact really-convinced that no one could ever replace the person he lost. Finn, on the other hand, is caught in the throes of a toxic relationship, knowing he's not getting what he deserves but is too scared to walk away. When their paths cross, the spark is undeniable, but both are hesitant, scared of getting too close. Killian fears the pain of loving and losing again, while Finn's relationship has made him lose hope all together-almost. Will they let their pasts define them, or can they find the courage to bloom together in the wake of their ruins?Complete
