Absolutely GORGEOUS right?!?! And of course with the cover you need a synopsis right? Well if you must!
Living in
London after spending almost twenty years in a town with a population of three
hundred would be hard on anyone – and Alec Johnson is no exception to the rule.
When Alec
followed Lexy to London, he knew his life would change drastically. He just didn’t
know how much. With Lexy’s friends and admirer to contend with, he has to show
there’s more to the country surfer boy than is ability to ride the waves. With
his own shameless admirers, he has to keep Lexy’s trust – and despite her love
for him, that’s no easy task.
Beneath her
tough girl exterior, all Jennifer Mason has ever wanted to do is paint.
London’s School of Art can give her that, and she couldn’t be happier she’s
finally breaking free from Lilac Bay. What she’s not happy about is having to
leave Carl behind – or his reluctance to visit her while she’s studying.
Their
relationship is put to the test as living on her own for the first time and
university take their toll on Jen. After all, three hundred miles is a long way
to be away from your boyfriend when you’re eighteen years old.
And it’s even
harder when you can’t keep your eyes off your best friend’s older brother.
And because Emma is badass, she's even included an Excerpt!!!
JEN
I stand,
walking towards Bing. “Tell me this is some kind of ass wiping joke?”
“I wish,” he
replies, looking down at me. “Believe me, spending my evening with you wasn’t
in my plan.”
“So change it,”
I hiss. “There is no way I’m spending all of Saturday night smiling and hanging
onto your arrogant arm, Samuel!” Although, it is a very pretty arm.
He sighs. “Look,
Jennifer, I don’t exactly want you on
my arm, but it’s too late to change it. Mum has already ordered matching
outfits.”
“Are you
fucking kidding?” I deadpan. “Not only do I have to go with you, everyone will
know I’m with you because, what? Your tie will match my dress?”
“Oh, and
there’s the brains she used to get into university,” he responds snarkily.
“Yes, Jen. My tie is the same material and colour as your dress. Believe me,
I’m not damn happy.”
I heave in a
breath. “This is gonna be as about as successful as Hades in the North Pole.” I
throw my arms up, and turn back to Lexy’s bed. I throw myself face down on it.
“I wouldn’t lie
like that,” Bing says. “You have no idea what’s happened on that bed.”
I get back up
and growl. I push past him, moving to stomp down the stairs.
“Hey, I was
just saying!” he calls, following me.
“Go away,
Samuel. I want to see you as much as I want a shard of glass in my ass.”
