Description

She has a future she can't escape. He refuses to let her face it alone.

Maci

From the outside, my life looks like a dream come true. A scholarship to Australia to study koalas. A sun-drenched campus. And a kiss from the most breathtaking stranger I've ever met almost the moment I arrive.

It gets worse—better?—when that stranger turns out to live just down the hall. Every look he gives me crackles with heat and promise, sending sparks straight through my veins.

But Raphael doesn't know what I do.
That my future is already mapped out.
That love—real, reckless, forever love—was never part of the plan, no matter how much I ache for it to be.

Raphael

I never expected to fall for the American girl who doesn't recognise me. With Maci, the noise fades—the cameras, the whispers, the pressure of a life lived under a microscope. She makes me laugh. She makes me feel steady. She makes me want a future that finally feels like my own.

When I'm with her, everything clicks.

Except Maci is hiding something. Something she's convinced will make me walk away. Something that forces me to question everything I thought I knew about love, destiny, and happy endings.

Because once the truth comes out…
Nothing will ever be the same again.
