If Stars Could Fall

Some stars were never meant to meet.

They fell anyway.

Amara Potter has spent her entire life doing exactly what she's not supposed to do.

As the twin sister of James Potter, trouble follows her like a shadow. Armed with a sharp tongue, a reckless streak a mile wide, and a talent for finding chaos wherever she goes, Amara has never met a rule she couldn't bend.

Regulus Black has spent his entire life doing exactly what he's told.

The heir to the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black, he has spent years molding himself into everything his parents expect him to be: quiet, obedient, and resigned to a future that was chosen for him long before he was born. The perfect pureblood heir. The perfect pawn.

He is everything Amara despises: cold, arrogant, and a proud Slytherin.

To Regulus, she's loud, infuriating, insufferable, and far too much like her brother.

They were never supposed to be friends.

A Potter and a Black.

A Ravenclaw and a Slytherin.

A Blood Traitor Princess and a Pureblood Prince.

Two people standing on opposite sides of a war that hasn't begun yet.

But somewhere between stolen glances, reluctant conversations, and years spent learning the truth behind each other's masks, hatred becomes understanding. Understanding becomes friendship.

And friendship becomes something far more dangerous.

Because when the world begins to fall apart, love may not be enough to save them.

And some stars are destined to burn before they ever get the chance to shine.
