Against the Fading Light (Nobody Series #2)

Neire Lame Francia has spent most of her life fighting battles no one else can see. No matter how hard she tries to do everything right, life always seems to hand her another reason to give up. Like the fading sunsets she loves to watch, her world grows dimmer with every disappointment, every heartbreak, and every dream left hanging in the dark. Tired of being hurt, Lame builds walls around her heart and convinces herself that solitude is safer than hope.

But even the darkest evenings cannot stop the light from trying to break through.

Everything changes when her path becomes entangled with Zaun Aeizraheel Zarion-her brilliant academic rival. His completely different from her. Yet as they are repeatedly pushed into each other's orbit, she doesn't realize that the walls she build around her heart are slowly breaking.

As feelings slowly bloom between rivalry and love, Lame finds herself standing at a crossroads. Will she continue hiding in the shadows she has known for so long, or will she find the courage to reach for the light?
