UNOFFICIAL BLURB:
Her past is wrought with demons.
His past is full of heartbreak.
Yet he’s the one person that can remind her what it means to live.
His past is full of heartbreak.
Yet he’s the one person that can remind her what it means to live.
Abbi Jenkins never thought she would leave the walls of the mental
institution that’s housed her for the last year. Now she has, but that doesn’t
mean she’s forgotten everything Pearce put her through.
She knows there’s only one way to deal with the depression that claws at
her mind each day, and ballet becomes more than a hobby, a dream. Ballet – and
Julliard – becomes a reason to live. Something to hold on for.
Blake Smith left London for one reason and one reason only. Running from
the heartbreak of his past was never something he wanted to do, but with
constant reminders everywhere he turned, it became his only option. When he
arrives in New York City, he vows he’ll keep the promise he made to his sister
and get into Juilliard.
But he doesn’t expect to be paired with Abbi in class, the girl whose
eyes show a world of pain he’s seen before. Pain he knows too well. As each
hour they spend together pulls them closer, Blake can’t fight his need to save
her from herself.
Lines blur as their pasts are wrenched into the open, and they have to
ask themselves whether they’re too broken to ever to be fixed, or if they’re
the healing the other needs.

EXCERPT (from Abbi’s
POV):
“We always seem to be somewhere when it’s getting dark,” I comment
absently, stepping from Blake’s hold and walking to the edge of the shelter. I
look over the water, a few lone ducks still swimming along.
I see him shrug as he steps up beside me. He rests his elbows on the
ledge and leans forward, his bicep brushing my arm.
“Hiding in plain sight,” he says simply.
I blink harshly, suddenly glad for the darkening of the sky. Something I
said so casually, like it meant nothing, and he’s remembered it. He’s
remembered it and somehow he’s applied it to everything we’ve done so far. He’s
letting me hide right where he can see me.
He seems to understand so much about me – about how I feel, how to deal
with the crazy breakdowns that can happen any second. He doesn’t blink at them
and nothing seems to faze him. It’s unnerving and reassuring at the same time.
“It’s my favorite time of day,” I admit, twiddling my fingers. “Right
now, when day is giving way to night. It’s the point I can drop the fake smile
and stop pretending like everything is perfect. There are so many shadows and
dark places I can barely recognize my own amongst them, and it’s a relief.”
“You can’t pretend all the time.” He turns his face toward mine, and his
eyes are so serious I have to fight not to look back at him. “Anyone who smiles
the way you do can’t have a fake one all the time. Either that, or you’re an
even better actress than you are a dancer and I don’t see how that’s possible.”
“Maybe not all the time,” I say slowly and quietly. “I don’t always need
to pretend. Sometimes it really is okay.”
“Like when you dance.”
I tilt my head toward him, my eyes meeting his through my hair, and I
whisper, “Like when I’m with you.”

About Emma:

day, New York Times and USA Today bestselling New Adult author Emma Hart dons a cape and calls
herself Super Mum to two beautiful little monsters. By night, she drops the
cape, pours a glass of whatever she fancies – usually wine – and writes books.
Emma

dashingly hot guy who likes to forget to wear a shirt, a sprinkling (or
several) of hold-onto-your-panties hot scenes, and a whole lotta love.
She
likes to be busy - unless busy involves doing the dishes, but that seems to be
when all the ideas come to life.
