Left Me Hollow GxG
You'd hate Vance if you met him. The problem is Sage didn't. She met his smile first. Arriving at university with a broken friendship, an overbearing mother, and more baggage than she cares to admit, Sage is desperate for a fresh start. Instead, one collision at a party drops her directly into Vance's orbit. He's the kind of guy everyone warns her about. The kind she swears she can handle. What follows is months of obsession, heartbreak, and self-destruction as Sage mistakes being wanted for being loved. While her world narrows around one person, anonymous notes begin appearing among her friend group, turning ordinary campus drama into something far more unsettling. As secrets surface and the threats become impossible to dismiss, Sage finds herself questioning everything she thought she wanted, and slowly drifts toward someone she never would've looked at twice. Sometimes the person you thought would never be yours becomes the one you can't let go of, and the one you wanted most isn't the one you're meant to keep.Complete
