Book excerpt: When the boy you love asks you to keep his greatest secret, do you? A thought-provoking, achingly complex novel about prejudice and the many meanings of love from Nina de Gramont, author of Meet Me at the River, which Kirkus Reviews calls a “must-read.” Fifteen-year-old Wren has been content to stay in her best friend Allie’s shadow. It doesn’t bother her that Ally gets the cutest guys, the cutest clothes, and even a modeling gig—Wren is happy hanging with the horses on her family’s farm and avoiding the jealousy of other girls. But when Tim, the most intriguing guy in school, starts hanging out with Allie and Wren, jealousy is unavoidable, but not the kind Wren expects. Because even though Allie is wayyy into him and Wren hasn’t flirted, not one little bit, it becomes increasingly clear that Tim prefers Wren’s company above anyone else’s. Tim’s unexpected devotion comes at the exact time Wren’s home life is about to be turned upside down. Her parents have just found out that the family horse farm is on land that was once a slave plantation and are struggling with whether to sell it. Wren aches at the thought of losing her horses and leaving town, but at least there is Tim...always a gentleman on their dates. Such a gentleman. Too much of a gentleman, even, and Wren begins to wish he’d be a wee bit less gentlemanly. And as Tim’s church becomes actively homophobic, his pressuring parents don’t understand why he won’t help “spread the word,” and he’s now a wreck. Then he tells Wren something he’s never told a soul, and Wren must decide what she’ll really do for love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Love Walked In and Belong to Me comes a profound and heart-rending story about a horrific tragedy that marks one woman and her hometown and about the explosive secrets that come to light twenty years later. Ginny Beale is eighteen, irreverent, funny, and brave, with a brother she adores and a circle of friends for whom she would do anything. Because of one terrible night, she loses them all—and her adventurous spirit—seemingly forever. While the town cheers on the high school football team, someone sets a fire in the school’s auditorium. Ginny’s best friend Gray Marsden’s father, a fire fighter, dies in the blaze. While many in the town believe a notoriously troubled local teen set the fire, Ginny makes a shattering discovery that casts blame on the person she trusts most in the world. Ginny tells no one, but the secret isolates her, looming between her and her friends and ruining their friendship. Over the next two decades, Ginny puts aside her wanderlust and her dreams. She marries a quiet man after college, and they move back to her hometown, where she raises their daughter, Avery, and cares for her tyrannical, ailing mother, Adela. She distances herself from the past and from nearly everyone she knew. But when Ginny’s husband, Harris, becomes embroiled in a scandal, her carefully controlled life crumbles, and, just when Ginny believes she is regaining her bearings, the secret she’s kept for twenty years emerges and threatens to destroy her hopes for the future. With the help of fifteen-year-old Avery and of friends both old and new, Ginny must summon the courage to confront old lies and hard truths and to free herself and the people she loves from the mistakes and regrets that have burdened them for so long.

Book excerpt: Charles and Shelia have held secret crushes on each other since their teenage years, but never approached each other until they see each other at the wedding of his sister and her brother. This time, when the opportunity presents itself, Shelia is determined to make the now successful singer notice her as a woman. After spending time together, they realize that their attractions are still strong and they jump a little impulsively at a second chance to be together. Secretly, they elope rather than separate to either side of the country without validating their love. Shelia, however, feels that she has to keep their marriage a secret from their families, and convinces Charles that it is for the best. Pictures of Charles and his mystery girlfriend, who is wearing an expensive and exquisite diamond ring and wedding band are spread all over the cover of a national tabloid, but her family doesn't realize that it's her. She keeps the secret. When her family finds out that she's pregnant, they begin to talk about wedding bells, but she holds in her guilt, listens to their hints, and keeps her secret. However, when she's leaving from her visit to Charles in New York on Valentine's Day for one of his final concerts, she is involved in an automobile accident and loses the baby. Charles sends a plane to Chicago for their families. He goes to the hospital to see her, and they have an argument because her grief was so deep for the loss. And she didn't feel his was deep enough. Charles leaves in a huff, rushing to his own flight to begin the final leg of his tour schedule. His plane crashes on take-off, leaving him severely hurt and unconscious. Shelia is given medication after her family comes, and they hear of the news. After Charles' surgery, the doctor hears him speak of his wife in his medicated state. Desperate to get to her husband, Shelia finally confesses the truth to both of their families, then goes to wait by her husband's side as he awakens. One year later, they celebrate their anniversary in the house that he built for her in the grove where they first made love, where she gave him her virginity and her love. He presents her with keys to her very own Mercedes Benz. She presents him with a silver baby rattle.
