Description

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.

Cara feels the same. And this joy is a gift – because her life is shattered, too. Nathan feels like a new start.

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.

Publisher Review

Powerful and complex, it’s a beautiful and compelling exploration of love and forgiveness. Bravo to Miranda! — Louisa Reid * Author of Gloves Off and Handle with Care * I found this book incredibly moving. Brutal, beautiful and ultimately hopeful, this coming of age story is layered and affecting. I loved the addition of the music and the way it captured Cara and Nathan’s journey. A deep look at love, loss, grief and all the emotions in between. A rare new voice. — Christine Pillainayagam * Author of Ellie Pillai is Brown *
