Ruin

Rachel Van Dyken

Haunted by a past that has driven her into the comforting darkness of depression, the protagonist finds an unexpected beacon of hope in Wes Michaels. He offers a light she never thought possible, but their burgeoning connection is shadowed by a ticking clock, a race against an inevitable end. As their moments together deepen, she realizes that his love, while profound, may ultimately lead to her undoing. This is a story about the fragile line between salvation and destruction, and how sometimes, the very thing that saves you can also be the force that ruins you.
