Break From You
(YA Contemporary, tough issues, fiction & literature, romance)
He loves her so much it hurts...
Brooke Myers can’t do it anymore. She knows it has to end.
Yet every time her boyfriend, Drew says, “I love you,” she folds and allows
herself to overlook the pain, isolation, and fear he has caused her. She wants
to believe she has it all- the perfect guy, the perfect image, the perfect
life. She knows what he’s doing is wrong but she can’t let go.
With the pain of a concussion reminding her of how bad
things can get, Brooke is finally determined to end her relationship with Drew,
but she doesn’t get the chance. A fire roars through the restaurant the night
of homecoming dinner, and a boy she’s never met comes to her rescue. She ends
up forming an instant bond with him and discovers what true love can be.
But when wishes are made and the realization that nothing-
not even tragedy- can break her from Drew, she’s forced to find herself. Can
she trust her feelings, her friends, and a boy who knows how to treat her
right? Or will she completely lose herself in Drew’s controlling hold?
Brooke once believed love was all it took...but is love
enough? Is it truly love when you lose yourself in it?
