   Summary

   Joyce escaped the lab. Hopper found her in the woods. Now they're running—from the government, from their pasts, and from the terrifying pull between them. Two broken people. One chance to trust. And a love that wasn't supposed to happen.

   (Alternative Universe where Joyce is Eleven and Hopper carries the weight of a lost wife—not a daughter.)
