From the USA Today bestselling author of Still Beating and The Wrong Heart comes a forbidden, slow-burn age gap romance with high angst and plenty of heat.
***
Before he discovered my age, he uncovered my heart.
Bruised, abused and victim to a loveless household, I shimmered with new life the moment he found me drowning my sorrows in a lake beneath the stars.
A chance encounter. An unspoken connection.
I was smitten; he was curious.
But, as everyone knew, fate could be decidedly cruel.
He called me Halley, like the comet.
I called him Reed.
And my best friend?
Well...she called him Dad.
Older is Jennifer Hartmann at her best, promising a compelling forbidden romance with gorgeous prose and an unconventional love story to savour.
