by M. A. L'amour

Harper leaves her school years behind, convinced she has finally escaped the boy who made every day feel like a battle. Ryker is a memory she would rather bury, tied to sharp words, colder stares, and emotions she never quite understood. But distance does not erase everything. When their paths cross again, the past refuses to stay quiet. Familiar tension returns, only now it carries a different edge, one that feels far more complicated than simple resentment. Harper finds herself caught between what she remembers and what she begins to see, as layers peel back and old certainties blur. The connection she once fought against now lingers in unexpected ways, pulling her closer when she should walk away. And suddenly, moving on feels far less simple than she ever imagined.
