Just the Right Amount
Violet Jones grew up under the heavy hand of her father's abuse. Survival became second nature, her only purpose to shield her younger brother from the same fate. Silence was her armor. Shadows, her refuge. At Thornwall Academy, she doesn't talk, doesn't seek friends, doesn't give anyone the chance to get close. Her classmates have another name for her: the witch. A girl who drifts through the halls untouchable, unreadable, and wrapped in rumors darker than the truth she hides. And then she meets Daniel West. Hockey star. Joker. Flirt. Best friend to the captain. The boy with the grin always ready, the line always waiting, the laughter everyone depends on. Violet is nothing like the people Daniel is surrounded by. While everyone else fights to be seen, she chooses to disappear. While people chase attention, she walks away from it. In a world where everyone wants something from him, she wants nothing at all. And that's what pulls him in. The more he notices her, the harder it is to stop. Not because she's quiet-but because she's different. Because she carries herself like she knows more about pain than anyone should. Because Daniel can't shake the feeling that if he doesn't try to understand her, no one ever will. But Violet's world isn't made for saving. It's built for surviving. And letting him close might be the most dangerous choice she's ever made.
