If I Stay Till November

Two years. Two failed attempts. One secret plan.

Seraphine Morales survived the crash that killed her family and her boyfriend.

Everyone else moved on, but she's been living in the shadows, counting down the days until November 14-the day she's certain she'll finally be free.

Starting college should be a fresh start, a chance to disappear. But life... doesn't work that way.

There's Damien-the quiet, controlled, dangerous calm in a world that feels like chaos.

Eli-the sharp, relentless observer who sees more than he should.

Harper-the persistent burst of warmth she can't ignore, no matter how hard she tries.

They're all orbiting her carefully constructed world, slowly pressing against the walls she's built. Every laugh, every glance, every connection threatens to unravel her plan.

Now, Seraphine must decide: keep counting down to the day she's planned for years, or risk everything for a chance at life she's convinced she doesn't deserve.

A slow-burn, emotional rollercoaster about grief, love, and the fragile line between survival and surrender.
