Mae Rivers was sent to Brackenridge Academy to start over.
To be quiet.
To behave.
To forget.
But in a place where appearances matter more than truth, silence doesn't protect you.
Especially not from someone like Ash Carter.
He's everything she should stay away from - reckless, charming, and far too observant.
He sees her when no one else does.
And that might be the most dangerous thing of all.
Because some stories aren't meant to be told.
And some truths were never meant to stay buried.

Bruised Angels
In Ravenhill, silence is never empty - it is full of things no one knows how to say. Pearl Lowell has spent years learning how to exist in the aftermath of what shaped her too early. Once a child full of light, she has become a name spoken carefully, a story rewritten by people who were never there to understand it. Rhys Morgan has always believed in order, in control, in the certainty of things that can be measured and achieved. But some people do not fit into certainty. Some connections refuse to fade, even when everything else does. They were once part of the same world - close enough to believe it would stay that way. But growing up in Ravenhill means learning that distance can happen quietly, and that not everything lost is ever truly gone. When their paths cross again, nothing returns as it was. Only fragments remain - of memory, of misunderstanding, of everything left unsaid between them. And in a place where perception travels faster than truth, they are left with one question that neither of them is ready to answer: how do you understand someone you were never truly allowed to know? Some stories are not about what happened but about what was never said.
