When Nathan meets Cara, sparks fly. Her smile lights him up, and he falls for her fast. Being with her is like taking a deep breath, after the terrible thing that happened three months ago.

But they're both hiding a secret. And the secrets intertwine in a way neither of them could imagine.
There's no way Cara and Nathan can be together. But, despite everything, they find it impossible to be apart.
This is a stunningly written, thought-provoking drama about loss, atonement, and love which defines a lifetime.
Genre: Young Adult Fiction
