His lip curves on the left, a dark brow raising, "Are you scared?" "No." "You are." "No, I'm not." He grins, "It's okay, just trust me," he leans closer, the deep smell of his cologne surrounding me, face completely serious, "You do trust me, don't you?" ----- Slader Harris is suffering; between sleepless nights and long tiresome days, she's left feeling totally isolated and completely alone. Her Dad is hiding secrets, staying out late into the night, and leaving early in the morning. But does she have it in her to face the truth? To confront the man who's breaking her heart day in and day out? She doesn't, that is, until she meets Elio Peters. Heartbroken and feeling betrayed, Elio Peters feels as if his world is tilting sideways. Until an unsuspecting loner teaches him a thing or two in orbits. Because for all of its greatness and grandeur, even earth stumbles on its axis. Now, Elio wants to return the favour, repay an unrepayable debt and maybe, just maybe, finally get the girl. #2 in YoungAdultFiction, #7 in teen fiction, #3 in Elio, #5 in FamilyAndFriends, #8 in LoveHate
