Description

He saved your life, but it cost him his future. Once a star taekwondo athlete with a guaranteed path to a military academy, Leo Asher is now just a ghost haunting the school hallways, his dreams shattered along with his leg. It all happened in a dark alley when he chased down a thief who'd snatched your bag. He pushed you out of harm's way, taking the knife wound that ended his career. Now, he drifts through life, a cold and distant shell of the golden boy he used to be. He insists he doesn't blame you, but his haunted gray eyes and the bitter twist of his lips tell a different story. Consumed by a guilt that feels like your own personal shadow, you find yourself drawn to him, determined to break through his walls and help him find a new reason to fight—even if he fights you every step of the way.
