But what starts as an accidental run-in quickly develops into more, sparking an undeniable attraction.

No matter how hard she s falling for Colton, each beat of his heart reminds her of all she s lost and all that remains at stake."

Recenzii
“This is hands down Jessi Kirby’s best book to date. It’s stunning and breathtaking, at turns heartbreaking and healing.” — Sarah Ockler, author of Twenty Boy Summer
“The love story will hook readers—especially those who enjoyed John Green’s The Fault in our Stars. This memorable romance will ring true with teens.” — School Library Journal
“Well-rounded characters and the romantic tension of unrevealed secrets.” — Kirkus Reviews
“Kirby’s story is, at its core, a sweet, budding romance, set against the backdrop of family. [A] story of letting go and moving forward.” — Publishers Weekly
“[A] sweet romance that grows organically.” — Unshelved.com
