EXCERPT:

It’s been weeks since our first hookup, but even before we had sex, we were getting closer. He was probably high every time we hung out, kissed, or had sex. And I never even knew it. I was so wrapped up in wanting the boy that I didn’t realize the boy needed my help.

“I don’t want to drag you down with me, Haley.” His hands move up and down my back. “You could go anywhere, do anything, have anyone you wanted.”

“And what I want is you. You are who I want.” I rub his back gently. “Just lie down with me, okay?”

If I can just get him to fall asleep, maybe tomorrow, I can talk some sense into him and convince him that he needs help. At the very least, he needs to tell Coach LaConte. He can’t fight this battle alone even if he thinks he can.

Gently, I reach down and peel his shirt off and kiss his shoulder. Crouching down, I pull down his pants, taking one leg out at a time, leaving him in his boxers. It isn’t about sex right now. It’s about taking care of him when he needs me to.

Slowly, he moves upward to the top of the bed and lies down. And once I’ve taken my own jeans off, I climb into bed and I wrap my entire body around him.

His heart pounds against my ear, and his body trembles against my own. And it’s right now that I know one thing to be true.

I’ll do anything to save this boy. Even if it kills me.

We need rest right now. Tomorrow, we can deal with everything else.

Tomorrow will be better.

BLURB:

I was four when my parents gave me my first pair of skates. By six, I was hooked on hockey and couldn’t get enough. At twelve, I had made a name for myself on the ice. And when I was fifteen, colleges were starting to take notice.

Life was great—until it wasn’t. Because when I was seventeen, my best friend died in my arms. And nothing made sense after that. Drinking turned to smoking. And smoking turned to pills. But no matter how high I got, I couldn’t erase that night. Or the guilt I felt.

Because that night had been my fault. And my friend was dead … because of me.

As my best friend’s baby sister, an actual angel sent from above, Haley Thompson is forbidden fruit, and I should stay away from her. Because everything I touch turns to crap. But like all things I’m not supposed to do, chasing her is another temptation I’m not strong enough to avoid. But when I spiral down, hitting my lowest point, I know I can’t take her with me. Because innocent, sweet souls like her, they don’t belong at the bottom.

The trouble is, she refuses to let go of me. Even if it will ruin her.

Even if I will ruin her.
