It's not supposed to be this way

By YC Aspen Rose

From the author of The Things We Crave comes a romance-drama about love, loyalty, and the kind of heartbreak you never see coming. Emily and Angel have been inseparable since middle school. Best friends bound by shared secrets, summers that felt endless, and a future they always assumed they'd face together. But on the eve of college, Emily drops a bombshell: she's leaving. New York City. A clean slate. No looking back.
When Angel begins a relationship with the one person Emily can't stand - Bianca - everything shatters. Betrayal cuts deeper than distance, and suddenly running away feels easier than staying and watching her world fall apart. Full of twists, emotional landmines, and the haunting realization that it wasn't supposed to be this way, this story pulls you into a summer where love gets complicated, friendships fracture, and nothing ends the way you expect.
