Opowieść Zakończona, Pierwotnie opublikowano lut 01, 2020
Denise Webster thought her life was perfect.

Until the man she was supposed to marry fails to show up for their wedding.

Broke, distraught and heartbroken, Denise has no choice but to move back to her childhood home with her eccentric mother and stepfather to lick her wounds.

Hell-bent on avoiding as much human contact as possible, the only person who seems to see past the nonchalant veneer behind which she hides her pain is her childhood best friend, Mateo Ramiro.

But with a history of self-destructive behavior and a knack for making the wrong choice, will she ever let him in?

FIVE FEET APART meets 13 GOING ON 30 in this lighthearted chick-lit about heartbreak, discovering oneself and the thin line between friendship and love.

Dys • ar • thri • a difficult or unclear articulation speech that is otherwise linguistically normal - Doubt it? How do you know this blossoming friendship won't turn into something more? Cuz that kind of stuff only happens in Wattpad books. Someone texting or calling the wrong number, they fall in love, meet in person, confess their undying love for each other, happily ever after, the end. Too cliché. Even for me. - Gracie Summers was born with a brain injury which led to dysarthria. She hardly every spoke to anyone outside her family, and even then, she used short sentences.
