When It Was Us

For Maya Brooks, senior year was supposed to be simple - graduate, help her mom at the diner, and figure out how to pay for college. But when her childhood best friend Elijah Carter comes back to town after two years away, everything she thought she knew about herself - and her heart - begins to shift.

Elijah's return brings more than memories. His family's falling apart, his father's in trouble again, and the boy Maya remembers has turned into someone darker, quieter, carrying secrets.

As Maya's mother pushes her toward stability, and Elijah drifts toward chaos, both must choose: follow the path their families expect... or the love that's been waiting for them all along.

But love, they'll soon learn, isn't always enough to fix what's already broken.
