Summary
First year of uni was supposed to be simple: new city, new people, fresh start.
Instead, Carla Connor ends up in a chaotic house full of strangers, cheap wine, and too many personalities to keep track of, including one quiet, observant blonde who seems to see right through her.
Lisa Swain didn’t come to uni to make friends. She definitely didn’t come to get involved.
But somewhere between late-night kitchens, shared spaces, and conversations that hit a little too close to home, something starts to shift.
Slowly. Quietly.
And neither of them are quite ready for it.

Summary
On a cold night at the edge of a bridge, two lives collide—one desperate to disappear, the other quietly determined to help. Carla’s world is unraveling, and Lisa, a police officer with her own scars, becomes the unexpected thread holding it together.
After a brief, intense connection, Carla vanishes without a word.
Months later, on a quiet street in Weatherfield, Carla tries to rebuild her life, hiding the truth from those around her. But everything shifts when Lisa moves in just a few doors down.
As both women grapple with past wounds and hidden truths, they discover that the person who saved you once might just be the one you’re meant to hold on to.
