Echoes Between Us

Seventeen-year-old Lena Carter has always lived by the clock: rushing from class to class, studying for top grades, and keeping her world predictable. But everything changes when she ends up sitting next to Ethan Reyes, the school's golden boy with a crooked smile and a habit of showing up late.

But with secrets, pressure, and the ticking clock of graduation, Lena must decide:
