Description
Prickly, messy, deeply human characters. - Rachael Craw, bestselling author
But now Zelle is back, and their lives are about to get a whole lot more complicated.
Zelle is in denial about her alcohol use that threatens to spiral out of control, and she's deeply annoyed at having to leave the city. Callum's future is thrown into jeopardy after both a disastrous uni interview and his budding romance turning sour.
But they can't keep running from the past forever, and circumstances force them to examine their grief and guilt and find a way through.
With beautifully assured storytelling, this is an emotionally tense page turner that leaves you on the edge of your seat.
