Days Like This - Danielle Ellison - Bog

Sometimes the only thing standing between fear and hope is you. Almost a year ago, nineteen-year-old Cassie Harlen had a lot to deal with. A stack of college acceptance letters waiting for answers, a proposal from the boy next door, and a mother whose most recent bipolar episode left Cassie hurt and confused. Tired of cleaning up the messes caused by her mother's disorder, of resenting her mother for not being there, and scared of being trapped by an inevitable future-which included marrying Graham Tucker-Cassie did the only thing she could think of to keep from ending up like her mother: she left. Graham never knew why Cassie walked away. He woke up one morning and she was gone-along with the life that he'd created around her. After eleven months, Graham has a new plan for his future. One that doesn't involve Cassie Harlen. When Cassie's mom nearly burns down her house, Cassie's forced to return home. Back to a mother she's tried to ignore and the guy she's been unable to forget. Graham doesn't know how he's going to spend the whole summer living next door to the person who broke his heart without letting those old feelings push through to the surface. Neither does Cassie. PRAISE: "A complicated story of self-discovery, first love, and the hope of second chances. DAYS LIKE THIS left me breathless." - Rachel Harris, New York Times Bestselling Author "Full of beautiful prose, raw emotion, and complex characters, Days Like This will tug at your heart and hold on tight." - Chanel Cleeton, author of French Kissed "Pretty prose and characters who long for things they don't want to will, in turn, make you long for them to find happiness with every flip of every page. I was totally invested in the love story before they set eyes on each other. Filled moments of such sweetness and ones of holy hell hotness, this was the perfect balance of emotion followed by sexual tension that revs your entire system. A++. Definitely recommend!" - Riley Edgewood, author of Rock & Release
