She didn't run away.
She survived.
Edel was sixteen when she realized that love at home always smelled of alcohol and safety was a foreign concept.
Between screaming parents, unpaid bills, and siblings forced to grow up too fast, she was left with only one choice:
Leave-or end up the same way.
With a bag full of clothes, a broken heart, and no destination, she boarded a bus to Cork.
She didn't know where she would sleep.
She didn't know who she could trust.
All she knew was that Dublin would have destroyed her.
But sometimes running away leads you to exactly where you first stayed.
To a family that wasn't perfect, but was there.
To a boy who listened to her without trying to fix her.
To a life that slowly began to feel like hope.
John Kavangh was the last thing she expected.
But 17-year-old John isn't just the captain of the school's rugby team, he's also the most popular boy in school.
However, his eyes are solely on a girl whose life couldn't be more complicated.

Ghost in the Halls
Five years after the original Boys of Tommen era, 17-year-old Tadgh Lynch has found his footing. Now in 5th year, he's a solid hurler, surrounded by a close-knit group of lads, and finally experiencing some stability after years of turbulence in the Lynch household. But no matter how much distance he puts between himself and the past, the pain lingers-memories of his childhood, of Shannon's suffering, and of feeling powerless. On the first day of term, Tadgh meets Leah Daly, a sharp, academically gifted 16-year-old who's just skipped a year and transferred into his class. She's younger, brilliant, and immediately rubs him the wrong way-too aloof, too blunt, and too guarded. But what really sets him off is her last name: Daly. The same name as one of Shannon's worst bullies. That alone is enough for Tadgh to write her off. But the more he watches her, the more he notices the cracks in her armor. She's tired all the time. Avoids talking about her family. Shows up to school with suspicious bruises she brushes off with weak excuses. And sometimes, when she thinks no one's looking, she seems completely and utterly lost. When he finds out what's really going on-that Leah is living under the same kind of terror he once did-his perception of her shifts completely. Against his instincts, Tadgh becomes invested. Not just in helping her, but in understanding her. Because Leah isn't just a Daly. She's someone like him-someone surviving. As their bond deepens, Tadgh is forced to confront the parts of his past he's buried. And Leah, too clever and too broken for her own good, must decide whether to let someone in before her situation spirals further.
