The School for Angels

Packing boxes, slammed doors, and the heavy, suffocating weight of parents who treat home like a battlefield, that's all Rachel Gardner knows. Moving from one town to the next is routine, but walking through the gates of a brand-new high school feels less like a fresh start and more like stepping onto a firing range. Terrified, isolated, and completely exhausted by the constant upheaval, Rachel just wants to keep her head down, survive the day, and fade into the background.

Until Zack enters.

Zack is a walking storm of bad attitude and short fuses, a brute everyone in the halls knows to avoid. When a hallway collision or a stolen textbook forces their paths to collide, it shouldn't be anything more than a fleeting disaster.

But in a world where both of them feel entirely out of place, a bruised knuckles-and-silence kind of bond starts to form. He might be the last person she should trust, and she might be the exact kind of headache he doesn't need, yet somehow, their wreckage fits.

Can two people who are used to falling apart find a reason to stay?
