Asher had it all—money, intelligence, loyal friends and a future carved into the rink. A star player with an unshakeable passion for life. But in one pivotal moment, everything he dreamt of was taken from him.

He never imagined his world would shrink down to hospital rooms, potent medications and therapy sessions. A terminal diagnosis slowly stealing his body from him, unlike his hunger to beat the odds.
Her world existed in quiet darkness—the inverse of Asher’s. Their worlds were never meant to intersect.

Within the sterile lights of therapy rooms, she carried no other dreams beyond completing a pilot project that promised her the escape from being earthside. Where Asher clung to borrowed time and fragile hope, Lennon longed for an escape, and ultimately, for the darkness to finally take her away.
When forced to pair together in group therapy, their worlds collide in an oxymoron of souls bound by circumstance. What began as obligation grew fervent, volatile and dangerously intimate. He challenged the path she had chosen. She gave him a glimpse into a life he never realized he was missing.

Together, they crossed boundaries neither of them meant to even approach—where love felt less like the enemy and more like ruinous fragments of desire. Aching. All-consuming. Impossible to ignore.

It’s dark.
It’s reckless.
And it might be the most devastating thing either of them has ever encountered.
