How far must you fall before someone catches you?
Hallie Carter is seventeen, but she's barely living-trapped between mirrors and hunger, between hospital walls and silent screams. No doctors, no pills, no promises have ever managed to pull her back from the darkness that's slowly erasing her.
Until him.
Patrick Collins. A man who doesn't know what love is-but somehow sees straight through her. They both carry scars, some visible, others buried deep. But when their lives collide, something begins to break-not them, but the silence. The lies. The fear.
This isn't a beautiful love story.
It's a raw, unflinching fight for survival.
About fading bodies. And hearts that dare to hope again.
Because when you've stopped believing in yourself-what happens when someone else starts?
