Seventeen-year-old Elliot Hayes believes in fixing broken things. He restores old cars with his dad, rewires busted radios, and stitches together friendships that are falling apart. But there's one thing he's never been able to fix—Ava Sinclair. Ava is wildfire in human form. She dances in the rain, writes poetry in the margins of library books, and believes the world was never meant to be ordinary. But behind her vibrant smile, there are cracks—ones she hides beneath reckless decisions, whispered apologies, and the pills she keeps in her jacket pocket. Elliot and Ava have always been drawn to each other, two halves of a story that never quite made sense. He was the quiet boy who dreamed of leaving their small town, and she was the girl who wanted to burn bright before she faded.

When a tragedy in Ava's family sends her spiraling deeper into addiction, Elliot refuses to let her go. He chases after her, believing love is enough to save someone. But as he watches her slip further away, he's forced to face a heartbreaking truth—sometimes, love isn't a cure. Sometimes, it's a witness to the fall. Their story is one of stolen nights, desperate hope, and the slow unraveling of a girl who wanted to feel everything all at once. And in the end, Elliot must decide if holding on is an act of love... or if letting go is the only way to truly love her.
