Summary

It's been four years since Sandra left Glenview, four years since the death of her best friend Moira. Yet her mind keeps spiraling back to the dark and gloomy areas of her life. All she wants is to graduate quietly and leave everyone-for good. But one person keeps grounding her back to the reality: Asher Hades. To avoid flunking in her last semester, she joined a literary program for extra credit... but what truly captures her interest in the mundane class are those piercing blue eyes that seem to see right through her walls. Aside from his shiny medals and silver ice blades, nothing excites Asher Hades anymore-except the brown eyed beauty who groans at Shakespearean sonnets and pretends not to care. Sandra Walker has intrigued him since the moment she walked in, existing in corners of his head he didn't even know existed. With pressure mounting from the rink and his men's singles debut looming, Asher hatches a plan to forget her once and for all. But a terrifying kind of intimacy grows between them-one that doesn't follow clean lines, but instead spills into their cracks, their shadows, their mess. And when Sandra's bitter past in Glenview starts clawing its way back-and Asher's carefully buried guilt threatens to crack-they'll have to confront more than just their feelings for each other. "Everything is falling apart, so please... just let me keep holding on to this. To you." TW: Death, mention of self-harm, sexual assault.

Author's Note

Hi, so this is my first work, and am a little bumpy😶‍🌫️ with writing stories. Also, english is not my first language, so do expect a lot of errors, incorrect tense and punctuation mistakes🥲 .This is my first work on wattpad. I hope you all will like it💕. Constructive criticism is welcome. And I would love to hear your thoughts.

Writing is just a thing to do in my leisure, so I thought I should share it with people😁. I don’t know if I suck or not but I hope I will come to know about it. Really looking forward to meet wonderful new people and like minds. Still haven’t thought about the character aesthetics, but will figure out soon.

The story is told in a past tense from everyone’s POV and sometimes you could get a glimpse of different timelines in their lives. So the portions in italics are shifts to the highschool time, before college for the main characters. Also sometimes the italics are the intrusive thoughts of the characters or then reminiscing about their past. Thats it. I would leave it to you guys then and not spoil the mood anymore. 🫡

Also, if you like it, please give me a teeny tiny vote. Thank you everyone😽

Also, no form of copying my work is tolerated, so yes please keep that in mind. Rest all please enjoy reading and commenting.

Anyways, I love you all, BYeiiii XOXO❤️💕❤️💕I

Shawna: I really enjoying reading this book, I read it twice back to back just in case I missed something lol. Mira & Devryan are actually perfectly fit one another, even when they tried to deny it. You could tell that he wanted her, human or mystic, he was just scared to admit it to himself. She was scared...

Also enjoyed seeing how even the Mafias is not all "stable" and how a bad bean can spread like wildfire if not contro...
