From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jamie McGuire comes a
riveting tale of first love that starts young but runs deep.
The first time Elliott Youngblood spots Catherine Calhoun, he's just a
boy with a camera, and he's never seen a sadder and more beautiful
sight. Both Elliott and Catherine feel like outcasts, yet they find an
easy friendship with each other. But when Catherine needs him most,
Elliott is forced to leave town.
Elliott finally returns, but he and Catherine are now different people.
He's a star high school athlete, and she spends all her free time
working at her mother's mysterious bed-and-breakfast. Catherine hasn't
forgiven Elliott for abandoning her, but he's determined to win back her
friendship...and her heart.
Just when Catherine is ready to fully trust Elliott, he becomes the
prime suspect in a local tragedy. Despite the town's growing suspicions,
Catherine clings to her love for Elliott. But a devastating secret that
Catherine has buried could destroy whatever chance of happiness they
have left.
