Eleanor Parkinson returns to Hogwarts for her sixth year, challenged with a vulnerability she needs to prove wrong and a new authority she needs to establish. That's easy. However, this year she's challenged something else: Tom Riddle who clearly isn't an open book. Eleanor accepts that challenge and when the silence between them after years of a seemingly calm competition is broken, she begins to crave another side of him that no one has ever seen. But when secrets from her family are revealed and she is faced with many difficulties that require her full attention, Eleanor realizes Tom is a distraction that's caused her life to meet a point where she has a dangerous choice to make: She can choose him, herself, or take the risk of changing him through her own journey of saving herself at the same time. But either way, neither path will lead her to anything more than a grim ending.

"From a very young age he realized it was good to have someone to vouch for you, to believe you were good - especially if you enjoyed doing bad things." Tom Riddle couldn't love. There was no changing that, but was it possible for someone to love a boy as twisted as Tom? Gwyn Phi loved Tom Riddle all her life, from infants in one crib to the day he left for Hogwarts and never truly came back. From Wools Orphanage to the Battle of Hogwarts, Gwyn and Tom's relationship set an unimaginable story in motion, touching lives across decades. One Muggle girl can't change Tom Riddle - but he sure did change her. A NOTE: This book was started before "The Cursed Child", and will continue as I had planned it before the play came out.
