Hairline Fractures

Reece Black didn't run away from Forks.

She simply accepted a university practicum there and pretended she wasn't absolutely dreading it.

Coming home means rain, awkward family dinners, unresolved grief, and a brother who refuses to give her space. It means facing the memories of a car accident that changed everything, and a past version of herself she'd rather not unpack. Still, the practicum is a big deal, and Reece is determined to keep her head down, do her job, and survive her return with minimal emotional damage.

That plan starts to unravel when she develops an inconvenient crush on someone she should definitely stay away from, older, charming, and far too tempting for her own good. As if that weren't enough, the local bad boy decides she's interesting, and suddenly Forks feels a lot smaller than she remembers.

Between family tension, unexpected feelings, and secrets lurking just beneath the surface, Reece's carefully structured life begins to wobble.
