Please read the introduction chapter before venturing into reading this book!

'I look at the back of the boy, sitting in front of me and his shining tousled hair.
Before I can even realize what I'm doing, I reach up and bury my fingers in Em's locks. They're so much softer and smoother than I've imagined. I can't help but gently squeeze a handful. He's pressing his head into my palm, turning slowly to face me. My fingers slide, following his movement, over his ear and down his cheek. His skin is like velvet.'
