Keep You
Um þessa rafbók
Dev Landry has a mundane life; runner-up on the track team, a nerdy best friend, and a job at his overbearing parents’ failing motel. He’s also in love with his former best friend, Hadlee Renee Morgan; the girl that never speaks, unless it's through her dark, disturbing, and taboo photography.
He’s loved her since the day he kissed her at the clearing in the woods three years ago, and then woke up from a coma with scars and no memory of what happened after. Now plagued by blackouts, migraines, and sleepwalking in the woods, his only solace is running, to keep the darkness at bay.
Dev’s life turns upside down when Hadlee shows up seeking refuge, promising answers about that day in the woods, the lies that entrap him, and why she stopped being his friend.
As Dev and Hadlee embark on their journey to rediscover the truth and each other, Dev realizes some secrets refuse to stay buried, and the cost of the truth may not be worth what he loses to find it.
Keep You is a dark, upper-YA coming-of-age mystery sprinkled with romance, quirky humor, and suspense uncovering the lies we tell, the secrets we keep, and the truths we hide.
