Before they were a headline in a history book or names etched in a memorial, James Potter and Lily Evans were just two students trying to navigate growing up in a changing world.
Between secret glances and shouted arguments, detentions and Quidditch matches and the growing shadows beyond Hogwarts' gates, they found themselves drawn together - not suddenly, but slowly, and not easily.
Set in the heart of the Marauders era, this is a story of friendship, defiance, and the kind of love that takes its time - unfolding between full moons, ink-stained notes, and the final days of peace.
