  Summary

  Asterid March seemingly leads the life she's always been meant to. With a soft heart and kind manner, she takes after her father and his healing hands. Together they run the apothecary shop where her mother runs the books and her little cousin, Lily, lives. She's perfect, or at least she pretends to be, but she also wants change. The inner battle between what she wants to want and what she truly wants will be excruciating, but a simple tune will change her life forever.

  Summary

  This is a slow burn romance between Asterid March and Burdock Everdeen. This follows along my other fic, Out of the Darkness, Into the Light, but told through the perspective of Burdock.

  If you'd like to follow along with Asterid's journey, I will link her story in the notes at the end of the chapter.
