Love, Like Drowning

Teri never planned to fall in love. At sixteen, she is focused on survival—sleeping where she can, staying invisible, and using school as the only place that feels safe. Then students start disappearing. Classrooms empty. Hallways are closed. Shadows move when no one is looking, and whispers of a river follow the missing. When Eli appears, quiet and dangerously magnetic, Teri feels drawn to him in ways she cannot explain. Being near him feels like standing at the edge of something deep and endless. Their love grows quickly, painfully, and against every warning. The closer they become, the more the school fractures—and the clearer it becomes that Eli is tied to the darkness consuming the town. Loving him feels like drowning, but letting go feels worse. As fear spreads and the truth emerges, Teri must decide how much she is willing to lose for love—and whether some loves are meant to be lived, or only survived. A haunting, tragic romance where love is beautiful, doomed, and impossible to escape.
