Jaded Falls

In the town of Drummers, some lives are chosen long before they are lived.

Brady Williams has always known who he's supposed to be-the quarterback, the golden boy, the future everyone expects. But expectations can feel like cages, and lately the life laid out before him feels less like a dream and more like a sentence.

Jade Cavendish has spent her life bound to a world shaped by rules she didn't write and powers she never chose. Every move promises a fresh start, but the shadows of her fate follow anyway. Arriving in Drummers is no different-just another place to stay invisible while the darkness meant for her quietly closes in.

When Brady and Jade's worlds collide, they realize their paths are different, but their prisons are shared. In a town where nothing goes unseen and every future feels predetermined, what grows between them is both a refuge and a risk. To be together, they must hide pieces of themselves from the worlds that claim them-and decide how much they are willing to sacrifice not just for freedom, but for each other.

Because in Drummers, falling doesn't just change your life.

It can cost you everything.
