Even Stars Need Shadows

Sirius Vale has always felt like a girl out of place-quiet, observant, and full of thoughts too heavy for her age. Named after the brightest star in the night sky, she never expected her life to be defined by darkness.

Then Ciaran Dorne returns to town. Her childhood friend. Her almost-family. Her unresolved past. He's darker now-calmer, colder, harder to read. Still, there's something magnetic about him, something that pulls Sirius closer with every shared secret and every unspoken truth.

But the closer she gets, the more pieces fall into place. Until the unthinkable becomes Questionable:

Is Ciaran is the one she saw that night?

Caught between justice and desire, guilt and understanding, Sirius is faced with an impossible truth:
You don't always choose who you fall for.
And some love stories are born not in light-but in the shadow of something much darker.

One's things for sure

Sirius Vale was only meant to survive what she saw.
