THE WOODS
REMEMBER US

Certain connections don’t end—they simply wait in the shadows.

At eighteen, Nadlan never expected to fall for her teacher. He was older, guarded, and off-limits—a man who saw the world in shadows while she saw the possibility of more.

What began as stolen glances and unspoken tension became a memory she carried like a secret, a love that shaped her in ways she didn’t understand at the time.

Years later, in college, their paths collide again. He’s the same man—but nothing is the same. The distance hasn’t erased the connection; it’s only deepened it. Now, with old wounds, new truths, and a past that refuses to stay buried, Nadlan must navigate a love that exists in the space between what’s forbidden and what’s fated.

Some people leave a mark on your soul that time can’t erase.

A NOTE FROM LYSSE

The Woods Remember Us took ten years of my life to complete. I wrote pieces of it wherever I could, even on the school bus, eating ramen noodles and holding tightly to a story I didn’t yet fully understand.

There were seasons of writer’s block when I wondered whether I would ever finish it. Still, something inside me refused to let the story go. I knew I had to complete it, even before I understood why.

The birch trees, my dreams, and my deep connection to ancient Egypt became part of the novel’s spiritual foundation. This book is profoundly dear to me. It is more than a story. It is something that kept calling me back until I finally brought it into the world.
