Description
His smile faded and our eyes held and that's when it happened. A charge passed through me, like an electric shock.
Anna meets Jem when her life is falling apart. He is everything Anna needs him to be. Her dad may have run off with a younger woman, her mum may be a wreck and her younger sister, Livi, is swerving off the rails - but as long as she has Jem, Anna will be OK.
And for the first time in her life Anna falls. Deeply and truly and intensely in love.
The end? Not quite...
