Description

He burst through the smoke-filled doorway, his face smudged with soot, shouting your name like a prayer. The school is on fire, and you're trapped. Just when you'd given up hope, Caleb Vance—the quiet, intense boy from your history class—appears like an avenging angel in the inferno. You've always known him as the guy who sits in the back, the one whose dark eyes seem to follow you in the hallways but who never says more than a few words. You never knew that beneath his quiet exterior was a boy who has been half in love with you since freshman year, memorizing the way you laugh and the doodles you draw in your notebooks. Now, with flames licking at the walls and smoke stealing the air from your lungs, he's risking everything to get to you. The line between life and death is blurring, and in this crucible of fear and fire, the secrets of his heart are about to be laid bare.
