Smoke and Velvet

Elowen is a dark-skinned college student with long ginger hair, grey eyes, and too many secrets. She drowns her silence in weed smoke, meaningless hookups, and late-night walks, keeping everyone especially herself at arm's length. But when she meets Callum, a golden-retriever-hearted Scottish hockey player with more kindness than sense, he starts breaking through the armor she's built.

They don't know each other. Not really.

But he sees her anyway.

And that's the most dangerous thing of all.
