The Death of a Dove
Megan has always been the quiet girl-the one who keeps her head down, looks after everyone else, and hopes not to be noticed.
Then Ryan notices her.
Kind, charming, and older, Ryan makes Megan feel seen in a way she never has before. As his attention grows, so does her belief that she has finally found someone who understands her. While her overworked mother struggles to hold their lives together and her best friend Leah begins to question the relationship, Megan is drawn deeper into a connection that feels like the love she has always longed for.
But love and control can look frighteningly alike when you're desperate to belong.
As small boundaries begin to disappear, Megan must decide who she can trust before the life she knows slips beyond her reach.
A powerful contemporary novel about first love, loneliness, friendship, and the subtle ways emotional manipulation takes hold, The Death of a Dove explores how ordinary moments can lead to extraordinary consequences-and why the people who try to protect us are not always the ones we choose to believe.
