About this ebook
A stunning coming-of-age tale from poet and writer Savannah Brown.
Sydney's dad is the only psychiatrist for miles around in their small Ohio town.
He is also unexpectedly dead.
Sydney believes the crash was anything but an accident. And when the threatening texts begin, and June Copeland - homecoming queen and golden child - appears at his funeral out of nowhere, she's sure of it.
But through Sydney's newfound relationship with June, she's given a glimpse of a life without the darkness of an unresolved grief and the chance, just maybe, of a fresh start.
Until it's clear that the secrets won't go away, and the truth might bring everything crashing down...
Imperfect friendships, the shadow of grief and the sweet pain of romance - this is a poetic, thrilling ode to being human.

From the moment I started this book I couldnt stop. I loved every second of it, and found the way that it dealt with grief to be extremely real and relatable. Every character is someone I could relate to and connect to, and the ending twist was a genuine shock to me. Without spoiling who it was, the reveal was a tense and breathtaking scene, with every word having me hooked. I read the entire book in a matter of hours, and then read it again. Little things stood out, moments that almost foreshadowed what was to come, but even my second time around the reveal was impactful and I had to take a minute to pause and collect myself as everything unfolded. It was tense, and I really did worry about if Sydney was going to be okay. It's a brilliant book, and if this is the quality of your first novel I genuinely cant wait for the next ones.
