Product Description Two friends fall into a passionate romance, but first they must confront a painful past, or else lose out on the one thing they’ve been searching for in this heartrending novel from the author of Come Back to Me and Stay with Me. Emerson Lowe and popular ice-hockey player Jake McCallister have been best friends since third grade but as their friendship starts to morph into something more, a terrible event occurs that heralds the end of innocence for both of them. Within a week, Jake’s living on the other side of the country and Emerson is left alone to pick up the pieces of her life in a small town determined to paint her as a liar. Seven years later, Emerson is still living on the beautiful Pacific West island of Bainbridge, helping run her family’s business. The last thing she needs is Jake turning up, bringing with him old memories and opening up old wounds. But Jake—even better looking than Emerson remembers—seems determined to revive their friendship no matter how much Emerson tries to push him away. Forced to work alongside him for the summer Emerson can’t help but fall for Jake, and soon they’re in the midst of a passionate romance that neither of them wants to end. But both Emerson and Jake know that if they’re to have any kind of future they must first confront the past—a past that most people want to stay buried. From School Library Journal Gr 10 Up—Emerson Lowe's summer starts off as usual: working at her family's business and helping take care of her sick father. She is thrown off her game when Jake McCallister, her ex-best friend who just happens to be a super hunky ice hockey player, pops back up in town. Emerson can't seem to shake her resentment at Jake for up and leaving her seven years ago, right when she needed him most. Misunderstandings and lost words leave Emerson and Jake dancing around their undeniable chemistry. Their romance, along with the past, demands to be set free. Palpable romantic tension will leave teens gasping, anxiously turning the pages, and begging for these two to get together. Gray manages to balance a passionate romance with a more serious backstory of sexual assault. Emerson shows what a meaningful and loving sexual relationship can look like while struggling with the mental scars of abuse. Sex is on page, detailed, and suited to older audiences, making this selection most appropriate for readers looking to graduate from YA to adult shelves. Fans of Nicholas Sparks will fall in love with this heart-pounding tale. VERDICT For hopeless romantics ready to step up from puppy love.

It slams behind her, rattling the glass, and I wince, rubbing my stomach where Em hit me with the paddle. Was that deliberate? No. If it were deliberate, she would have smacked me around the head with it. I want to move. I want to follow her. But I don’t. I head down to the water instead and stand staring out across the bay. What was I thinking? Coming here. Turning up out of the blue. What did I expect? For her to be happy to see me? Yeah. I laugh ruefully to myself. I guess that’s what I had hoped for, deep down, but not what I had expected. I always
