Gemma had it all. She had just graduated from nursing school, had a great job at a Children's Hospital and a wonderful boyfriend. She was on top of the world. Until he cheated.

Gemma is forced to face the consequences or keep letting her lies get bigger and bigger and bigger. That is until she met him.

It was a game I wasn't willing to lose, but all games had accidents and consequences. It takes a broken heart to know how to break a heart.

Just like a photograph, there's more to the story than what you see. Stumbling across one of Jessica's hidden portfolio might reveal that her happiness isn't all that true. Behind that smile and each picture she takes, holds a thousand words of a very big secret - one that Reece is determined to find out. And who knows? It just might change everything between them. cover by dysanic || 2015 watty's winner for talk of the town ||
