Shared Hearts

Mae's life is a delicate balance. Living with type one diabetes, navigating teaching, and managing her fractured family history isn't easy, especially with her mother vanishing five years ago, leaving only echoes of addiction and betrayal. But Mae's world turns upside down when her house is broken into, forcing her to seek refuge with her best friend, Pierce.

As they face the mystery of who is targeting Mae, their friendship ignites into a heated pact: a temporary romance without the risk of deeper feelings. As Mae and Pierce delve into the shadows of her past and confront the ghosts of her mother's choices, the lines between friendship and love blur. Mae must navigate a path filled with danger, self-discovery, and heart-wrenching choices.

Can Mae reclaim her sense of safety and forge a new future without losing the love blooming between her and Pierce? Or will the weight of her past, and her heart, pull her under?
