But beyond what she and others assume, there's chaos beneath the surface and bruises he doesn't show. Their lives collide in ways neither expects, and what begins as animosity slowly unravels into something deeper-something neither of them can explain, yet both of them feel. In a world where nothing is promised, they discover what it means to be enough-for themselves, and for each other.Complete
