Summary
from Goodreads:
Lauren Kelling’s prom night is a memory she’ll never
forget—in her nightmares. She had the dress, the hair, and romantic first time
plans with her boyfriend, Kolton Seidel. But what should have been the best
night of her life bleeds into terror when she’s brutally attacked.
Now, Lauren relives the events leading up to prom, unraveling the clues that should have warned her of the trauma to come. Like Kolton ’s malicious ex-girlfriend, who’ll do anything to rip them apart. Or Kolton’s mentally unstable brother.
After the tragedy, Lauren wants to hide, disfigured inside and out, while Kolton drowns in a sea of guilt. Only together can the two of them lay rest to the past and heal each other, through a love too strong to break.

Excerpt
We sat, breathing in unison, recovering from
our near drowning in each other, something he wasn’t trained to save us from. I
knew in that instant that I wouldn’t want to be saved from it.
The thought of leaving him sent a wave of
sadness through me. I blinked double time to hold back tears, but one escaped
and landed on Kolton’s arm.
“Lauren? What’s wrong? Did I upset you?” He
cupped my face with his hands, his eyebrows knit with concern as his blue eyes
probed mine for answers.
“I’ll have to leave in a few days,” I said,
choking on the words, feeling foolish.
He lowered my head to his shoulder. “It’s
okay. You don’t live far. I’ll come visit, and you’ll come here. You have a
house here. I’m pretty sure you’ll be back.” He squeezed my shoulders. “We’ll
make it work. I promise.”
I felt stupid for crying. “I bet you say that
to all the girls when they go home from vacation.” I wiped my eyes and realized
he was shaking his head.
“I’m not like that, Lauren.” He took my hand
and kissed it. “I don’t want to lose you. I won’t lose you again.” His face was
so sincere, like an innocent little boy, the boy he used to be. “Okay?”
I nodded and a few more tears slid down my
face.
“Stop.” He wiped the tears with the tips of
his fingers. “Your mom probably thinks I’ve abducted you.”
