Description
Maia Sanchez has spent her life blending into the background, her art her only refuge from a world she's too afraid to face. Haunted by a betrayal that shattered her trust, she's mastered the art of invisibility-until a chance mix-up forces her into the orbit of Eli Torres, the school's golden boy. Eli's life looks perfect from the outside: a basketball star, surrounded by friends, and poised for a scholarship that could change his future. But beneath the confident smile lies a young man buckling under the weight of expectations, afraid of what lies ahead if he falters. When their phones get swapped by accident, Maia and Eli are drawn into each other's private lives-his motivational playlists, her raw, unsent letters, and the secrets they've both worked so hard to keep hidden. What starts as a reluctant partnership to fix the mistake quickly blossoms into an unexpected connection. As they navigate jealous friends, resurfacing fears, and the pressures of their own worlds, Maia and Eli discover that the missing pieces they've been searching for might just be found in each other. But can two broken people truly heal together, or will their cracks only grow deeper when faced with life's realities?
