Synopsis
Some secrets
aren’t meant to stay buried …
Eight years ago,
Amelia Harris had her life ripped out from underneath her. Being the centre of
the town gossip was hard enough, but when the boy who promised her forever left
without so much as a goodbye, he took her ability to love with him.
After family
tragedy brings Evan North back into her life, the secrets of her past have
never felt as close as they do now. When the same scandal that tore them apart
rears its ugly head, will history be doomed to repeat itself?
Excerpt
“I miss him.”
“I know.”
“He knew
everything already, you know? It was easy to be myself around him.” I reach out
and take my drink.
“But that’s not
all, is it?” Jess challenges before sipping her wine. “The fact he knows what
happened to you in school isn’t the only reason you miss him, is it?” She
lowers her chin, levelling me with her gaze.
“No.”
I don’t even
know how to describe it, that soulful connection you get with another. When I’m
around him, nothing else bothers me. My world narrows when he’s in view, and I
like how it feels to have those blinders on. It’s as though I’m focussing on
the only things that matter: the people close to me.
“What if I
misread him?” I ask. “What if he wasn’t that into me?”
“How many nights
did he come over to see you at Kath’s?”
“Most of them.”
“How many times
did he message you?”
“Every day.”
Jess glares, her
lips curling up on one side. “Yeah, he wasn’t into you at all.”
Meet the Author
Born and bred in
Canterbury, New Zealand, Max now resides with her family in beautiful and sunny
Queensland, Australia.
Life with two
young children can be hectic at times, and although she may not write as often
as she would like, Max wouldn’t change a thing.
In her down
time, Max can be found at her local gym, brain-storming through a session with
the weights. If not, she’s probably out drooling over one of many classic cars
on show that she wishes she owned.
