The Quiet One

Max has spent years mastering the art of staying in control. Quiet. Watchful. Careful.

Reese has spent most of her life being underestimated. The healer, the steady presence everyone relies on but few truly see. The closer their worlds collide, the harder it becomes for Max to pretend distance will keep Reese safe.

Because protecting her means learning when to let go. Loving her means trusting the choices she makes. And the future he fears may have far less to do with fate than the decisions he makes now.

Max and Reese must decide whether the forces pulling them together define who they are—

—or whether destiny is something they choose for themselves.

Some bonds are written in blood.

Theirs will be written by choice.
