For some people, silence
is a weapon. For Mallory “Mouse” Dodge, it’s a shield. Growing up, she
learned that the best way to survive was to say nothing. And even though
it’s been four years since her nightmare ended, she’s beginning to
worry that the fear that holds her back will last a lifetime.
Now, after years of homeschooling with loving adoptive parents, Mallory must face a new milestone—spending her senior year at public high school. But of all the terrifying and exhilarating scenarios she’s imagined, there’s one she never dreamed of—that she’d run into Rider Stark, the friend and protector she hasn’t seen since childhood, on her very first day.
It doesn’t take long for Mallory to realize that the connection she shared with Rider never really faded. Yet the deeper their bond grows, the more it becomes apparent that she’s not the only one grappling with the lingering scars from the past. And as she watches Rider’s life spiral out of control, Mallory faces a choice between staying silent and speaking out—for the people she loves, the life she wants, and the truths that need to be heard.

Why am I waiting on this book? It's been a while since I read something by JLA, and I've loved almost all of her books. The Problem with Forever sounds so good! I hope I love it as much as I've loved her other books.
What about you?
Yes!!! This one looks great. I need to finish the Lux series soon so I can read more JLA books. :)
ReplyDeleteI need to read the last two books, too! I hope this is great!
DeleteOH GOSH YES! We need more JLA! I admit, I don't really enjoy YA contemporary, but I need this book in my life! I hope you love it, Lis. :)
ReplyDeleteAlyssa @ The Eater of Books!
YES. I absolutely love JLA so this one is a must! (I really should finish her Lux series beforehand though) :)
