Before You Become My Ruin

Anaya's life at college looks like a dream painted in bright colors - late-night laughter, careless friendships, hidden glances, and a love that feels like it was written for her alone. But behind the music, behind the smiles, and behind the warmth of the people she trusts most, something darker is moving in silence. One boy has always been her comfort, her safest place, her closest friend. Another has entered her life like a storm she never saw coming. As truths begin to crack the world she knows, Anaya is left with a terrifying question: is her best friend hiding a secret from her, is her lover living a lie, or has everything she believed been part of someone else's game?
