Sample · Chapter 1

People often believe that life changes in a single moment. It doesn't. Life changes through seasons—through the ordinary days we barely notice until they become memories. None of the six students walking through the gates of Hawthorne University that Monday morning knew that nine years later, they would look back on this day as the beginning of everything. Some would find love. Some would lose it. Some would discover loyalty. Others would become the very people they once promised never to be. But for now, they were simply strangers. --- Adrian Hayes tightened his grip on the strap of his backpack as he stood outside the university's towering entrance. His clothes were neatly ironed, though they had been worn for years. His shoes had been repaired twice by the old cobbler in his neighborhood. No one looking at him would guess that his mother had worked double shifts for months just to help him pay the part of his tuition that his scholarship couldn't cover. Before he left home that morning, she had placed both hands on his shoulders. "Don't try to become the richest man," she'd said.
