A Love Like This

Lena Carter doesn't believe in love. To her, it's nothing more than a word people use until it loses meaning. She's focused on her future, her grades, and making it out of high school without distractions. But when she's paired with Caleb Hart-the school's most mysterious and indifferent troublemaker-for a semester-long project about the meaning of love, her carefully structured world is thrown into chaos.

Caleb has his own reasons for keeping his distance from people. Love has only ever led to disappointment, and he's not interested in pretending otherwise. But the more time he spends with Lena, the more cracks start to form in the walls he's built around himself.

What starts as reluctant meetings and tense conversations soon turns into stolen moments, late-night talks, and a connection neither of them expected. But love isn't easy-especially when fear, doubt, and their own pasts threaten to pull them apart.

In a world where love feels complicated and fleeting, Lena and Caleb must decide: is this just another story waiting to fade, or is a love like this worth fighting for?
