Narrado por: Karissa Vacker, Darrell Dennis

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jamie McGuire comes a riveting tale of first love that starts young but runs deep.

The first time Elliott Youngblood spots Catherine Calhoun, he’s just a boy with a camera, and he’s never seen a sadder and more beautiful sight. Both Elliott and Catherine feel like outcasts, yet they find an easy friendship with each other. But when Catherine needs him most, Elliott is forced to leave town.

Elliott finally returns, but he and Catherine are now different people. He’s a star high school athlete, and she spends all her free time working at her mother’s mysterious bed-and-breakfast. Catherine hasn’t forgiven Elliott for abandoning her, but he’s determined to win back her friendship...and her heart.

Just when Catherine is ready to fully trust Elliott, he becomes the prime suspect in a local tragedy. Despite the town’s growing suspicions, Catherine clings to her love for Elliott. But a devastating secret that Catherine has buried could destroy whatever chance of happiness they have left.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“This is an engaging story of two wounded kids who find solace in a friendship that blossoms into a touching first love. A young adult love story laced with warmth, angst, and hope.”—Kirkus Reviews

“McGuire crafts a compulsively readable love story…She combines themes of racism, abusive families, and mental illness to create a pair of protagonists who are multidimensional and worth knowing. McGuire leaves enough bread crumbs to set the tone for what is to come, building a truly surprising and terrifying climax. Readers who enjoy Megan Miranda’s psychological thrillers and Jennifer Armentrout’s new adult titles will devour this book.”—VOYA

“With a raw, genuine candidness in her storytelling, McGuire will capture readers as she delves into complex matters of the heart. McGuire’s latest is a story of enduring love that readers will fall in love with.”—RT Book Reviews

Kind of a "Beautiful Mind" type story.

Moral of the story is to ask for help sooner, stop keeping secrets, report the bullying, and talk to your friends. Weird story. Great narration.

WOW!! Didn’t see that coming!

This book was amazing!!!! I hope we get more of Catherine and Elliot! And wow!!! That plot twist! I did not see it coming! Soooo good!!

Amazing?

This book is awesome! I couldn’t put it down and it always kept me on my toes!

McGuire did it again!

I am a huge McGuire fan, so when I heard she was coming out with a new book, I was super excited.

This is definitely a book that's better to go in blind to. While I guessed the ending around the middle of the book, I still thoroughly enjoyed the story. I wish there was a little more romance as that's what Jamie does best, but since this was a YA book, it was definitely toned WAY down. Again, the story was still great. I loved ALL of the eclectic characters. I was never bored because they were so interesting to try and figure out.

Karissa Vacker was phenomenal. This is the first book she's narrated that I've listened to I think, and she did a fantastic job.

very unique story line

very unique suspenseful romance full of twists, turns, secrets, and true love. highly recommend this book.
