Can he convince her to live? Can he convince her to love?
I leave town the day my mother is buried.
Los Angeles feels safer than home because I know I will never care about anyone there. Caring is dangerous. Loving someone means I might hurt them the way I hurt everyone else.
Daphne welcomes me anyway. Her kindness disarms me. Then I meet John, brilliant and steady and terrifying in the way he makes me feel seen.
I tell myself I can walk away. I always do. But love does not let go so easily, and running might finally cost me everything that matters.
