After seven years, I’m thrilled to finally be reunited. And Stone is… Well, let’s just say Stone is not. Gone is the happy-go-lucky boy who taught me how to do backflips off Lyman’s wharf, and in his place is a guarded, six-foot-two jerk. Ten minutes in and it’s already obvious he’s still battling demons from that horrible night all those years ago. Demons that make me think a lot more transpired that night than I’m aware of.

And Everett -stupidly charming, frustratingly handsome Everett- is hard to resist. But when things get complicated, Gemma and Everett are both faced with the same dilemma: How can they make things work when they live in completely separate worlds?
