Eli Hayes has spent his whole life being compared to someone else.
The son of football legend Beckett Hayes and media powerhouse Sienna Hart Hayes, everyone already thinks they know who he's supposed to be.
Quarterback.
Leader.
Future star.
Simple.
The problem?
Eli isn't so sure anymore.
When a major development project threatens the lake that has been the heart of his family's summers for over a decade, Eli finds himself fighting for something he never expected to care about this much.
And somewhere between environmental reports, disappearing shorelines, and a girl who challenges every assumption he has about himself, Eli starts asking a question he's spent his whole life avoiding:
What if the future everyone planned for him isn't the future he wants?
Because saving Legacy Island might end up changing more than the shoreline.
It might change him too.

آب گلدون سانسوریات رو میدی. لب پنجره میشینی. سرت رو تکیه میدی به شیشه و به انبوه ماشینهای تو خیابون که از اون بالا نقطههای کوچیک براق بودن نگاه میکنی. منتظری که در باز بشه و همسرت که از شیفت شب برمیگرده ببینی. آفتاب میزنه. گرسنته. بوی قهوهی ماگ تو دستت تو آشپزخونه پیچیده. چند لحظه چشمهات رو میبندی. یه رویای مبهم میبینی با رنگبندی آبی و سبز و صورتی. ستون فقراتت از سرما و رطوبت تیر میکشه و چشمت رو باز میکنی. آفتاب میزنه. گرسنته. چمنهایی که روشون دراز کشیدی صورتت رو نوازش میکنن و خورشید از لابهلای شاخههای درخت چشمت رو میزنه. به جای ماگ چاقو دستته و به جای قهوه، بوی خون میده. چه وحشت کنی، چه بجنگی، چه قایم شی، یا آرزوی مرگ کنی، راه فراری نیست. تو انتخاب شدی برای این نفرین. اینجا خونهی توعه. اینجا وُرسیته.

"I can't believe you forgot to schedule that meeting, Raj!" he shouted into the phone, his voice cutting through the peaceful atmosphere. "This is the second time! If you can't handle your job, maybe I should find someone who can!" His words were harsh, each syllable dripped with irritation. His personal assistant stammered an apology, but Aarav was too enraged to listen. "You're fir-" he began, ready to fire him, but then the soft chime of Siya's payal reached his ears, cutting through his anger. It was a gentle sound, unlike the chaos of his work life, and it drew his attention away from the call. *************************************** Aarav Singh Rathore is a powerful 28-year-old CEO and ruler of Rajasthan.
