Romance
The Second Kiss
|
Jess never told anyone about her first kiss, her crush on the too-old-for-her boy next door, or what his departing gift meant to her. But Jacob has been gone for six years, and a lot has changed. Jess is a high school senior with plans, popularity, and a football star boyfriend.
Just as everything she's worked for falls apart, Jacob is back—assigned to the Army base near her home. Is this her second chance at love, or will Jacob only see the little girl he left behind? |
Kiss Me Goodbye
|
Long-distance love is hard enough. Long-distance love during wartime may be impossible.
Jacob is in Iraq. Jess is at college trying to build a new life. Between grainy video calls and messages that never quite capture what they need to say, their newly kindled romance feels like its barely holding on. And then there's someone else, someone who isn't half a world away. When tragedy shatters both their lives, guilt, blame and an unfathomable loss threaten to destroy what they've built. Can their love survive what war has taken? Or is letting go the only way to save each other. |
