πππππ ππππππ has known Collin Bennett since they were two dirt-covered kids in sneakers and backwards hats. He was her safe place, her escape from the life waiting for her at home-the one she never spoke about.
But when a devastating accident forced her family to flee to the next state over, Polly was ripped away from the boy she loved, leaving behind unfinished promises and a childhood she never got to keep.
Now she's back.
Only everything has changed.
Including him.
ππππππ πππππππ is Westendale Academy's golden boy. Captain of the hockey team. Starting center for the Eagles. With graduation looming and professional scouts watching his every move, his future has always felt inevitable-until a brutal leg injury threatens to take it all away.
When Collin finds himself sidelined in the nurse's office, the last thing he expects is a girl who feels achingly familiar. Something about her pulls at memories he can't quite place, emotions he doesn't remember earning-but can't ignore.
As past and present collide, Polly and Collin are forced to confront who they were, who they've become, and whether first love can survive the weight of time, trauma, and everything left unsaid.
Because some promises just don't fade.
