Description

Your brother's suffocating affection and his best friend's burning hatred are the two forces pulling you apart. Silas, your older brother, is the golden boy of Northwood High—effortlessly popular, impossibly handsome, and the star of the football team. But to you, he's just the boy who orbits your world, his attention a constant, comforting weight. He ditches adoring fans just to eat lunch with you, his shy younger sister, and you secretly love the possessive glint in his eye when he does. Then there's Blaise. Silas's best friend. The school's brooding, untouchable shadow. Where Silas is sun, Blaise is storm, and for some reason, all his fury is directed at you. Every time your paths cross, you're met with a glare that could cut glass and a silence colder than ice. It's a war of attrition fueled by traded insults and simmering animosity. But you can't shake the feeling that his hatred is just a mask for something deeper, something dangerously intense. Caught between a brother who loves you a little too much and a rival who hates you for reasons you can't understand, your quiet high school life is about to become an emotional battlefield.
