At nineteen, Felix Morel's life is already crumbling. Between the music classes he clings to in pursuit of his dream and two jobs to support his cancer-stricken mother, every day feels like a battle he's barely surviving.
Elias Gray, twenty-six, has never known struggle. The spoiled son of a powerful politician, his world is privilege, recklessness, and indulgence-until one night, when he crashes into Felix's world. Literally.
Their lives collide in the most twisted way, leaving Felix scarred with trauma he can't outrun and Elias burdened with a guilt he can't escape.
But in the wreckage, something unexpected sparks. What begins as a strategy, a reckless game Elias convinces himself he can control, soon grows into something more-something fragile, dangerous, and undeniable.
As secrets unravel and the weight of the past presses closer, one question remains:
When love is born from ruin... can it survive the truth?

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.

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.
