Through the Static

When new transfer student Zoe Carter arrives at Blackwell Academy, she's determined to stay invisible - haunted by a past she refuses to talk about and scars she hides behind music, sarcasm, and a worn-out leather jacket. She doesn't do friends, doesn't do attachments, and definitely doesn't do feelings.

Then there's Dana Ward - sharp, kind, unshakably optimistic, and everything Zoe swore to avoid. What starts as playful banter and stolen glances turns into something deeper: late-night confessions, almost-kisses, and the slow realization that Dana might just see through every wall Zoe's ever built.

But love at Blackwell isn't simple. Between jealous rumors, resurfacing trauma, and the ghosts of Zoe's past clawing their way back into her life, both girls will have to fight - for safety, for truth, and for each other.

Through the Static is a story about healing, found family, and the quiet bravery of choosing love when you've only ever known chaos.
