Ethan never understood how love could be so terrifying. He also didn't understand the weight of a promise in the heart of a broken girl.
That promise set something dark in motion. On the last day of school, the hallways empty and doors locked, she reveals the truth: a summer of love before the end, a way to be together forever... through death.
Juno wanted forever. She would do anything to make it happen. And somewhere in the shadows, something listened and answered her call.
Ethan is pulled through a nightmare where love becomes a vicious cycle, each act of affection dragging him deeper into fear, obsession, and survival.
But survival isn't enough. As fear turns to grim determination, and helplessness to fragile hope, Ethan realizes that survival isn't just about fleeing..... It's about confronting his feelings, the horrors that pursue him, and the monstrous forms love can take.
