By: Giuliana Victoria Adhira Shah wants a soft place to land after graduation—a place untouched by truths of her diagnosis she isn’t ready to face. More than anything, she needs a roommate who won't ask questions. Elijah Elliott is supposed to be exactly that. Until he starts to notice everything. When Adhira’s body begins betraying her in ways she can no longer hide, Elijah sees the truth she’s been carrying alone. And for the first time, she realizes that with him, she doesn’t have to pretend she’s okay.

Because falling in love when your future feels fragile is terrifying. And sometimes, the gentlest love is the most devastating of all. Show more
