CHASING 11

"She was chaos.
I was quiet.
And somehow, we fit."

James Biggs never had it easy. After Joe Gibson died, everything fell apart. His dad disappeared when he was needed most, his mam carried stress like a second skin, and his siblings were louder, brighter, more alive than he ever felt. James learned how to fade into the background, how to hurt in silence, how to survive by not being seen.

But Lizzie Young was the only thing in his world worth spinning for.

Lizzie's life was one long tragedy-highs that burned too bright and lows that dragged her under. Bipolar disorder ruled her days, turning love into fear and happiness into something that never stayed. She was chaos in its purest form, and the world never knew how to handle her.

Until one day, she talked to her best friend's twin brother.

The quiet boy who had loved her since junior infants.
The boy who saw her storms and stayed anyway.
The boy who never stopped chasing her-even when he was breaking too.

Sometimes the people who save us are the ones who were hurting all along
