Afterglow

Arcadía Delacroix never fit in-her introverted nature, her alternative style, and her quiet, observant ways have always set her apart. But moving from the deep South of Louisiana to Pensacola, Florida, in the middle of a pandemic is a whole new kind of isolation. Thrust into a school full of strangers, cliques, and bullies, Arcadía feels completely invisible... until she meets Jayda Summers.

Jayda is vibrant, magnetic, and everything Arcadía shouldn't be drawn to-but she can't look away. As the two girls are pulled closer, their connection awakens feelings neither knows how to navigate. Desire, fear, and secrets begin to blur the line between friendship and something more-and when the tension spirals, both girls are forced to confront choices, challenges, and emotions that could change everything. In a world that already feels alien, can they find a place for themselves... and for each other?
