Francesca Grey thought she'd finally escaped the perfect little town that never really knew her. Three years in Los Angeles taught her how to breathe again - how to be invisible, free, and entirely her own. But when an invitation arrives for her father's wedding - to a twenty-one-year-old woman she's never met - Frankie finds herself driving back toward the life she swore she'd left behind.
What she doesn't expect is for the return to stir everything she thought she'd buried - memories of her mother, the weight of who she used to be, and the quiet ache of belonging she's never quite found.
And then there's her.
Someone unexpected. Someone who sees her in the way the town never could - not as who she was, but who she might still become.
In a town where every face remembers her past, Frankie must decide whether home is a place she escaped... or a person she's just beginning to know.

Guess That Is How I Know You
A deeply moving love story that will throw you into an emotional roller-coaster of learning the diverse facades of love. "Her presence took hold of every single person inside that room, that kind of power over people was inebriating. She reminded me of a fox looking right at its prey and still, even though the prey knows the intentions of the fox, it cannot help but stop and admire the beauty of the predator until it becomes too late to flee." Remi is a law student and even though she is young and sometimes naïve, she is by no means the kind to play with. Introverted, confused, intelligent beyond her age yet unapplied, she is an inconsistency between trying to be the best she can be and not knowing whether she is making the right choices for herself. Follow Remi as she attempts to navigate unpaved roads: a complicated and tangled connection, the intricacies on stablishing a worthy career, the conciliation of her feelings with her professional priorities, the world of new experiences, and a rocky love story. When all one seeks is that perfect moment, on that perfect spot, with the right person to feel things are finally falling into place. But Remi cannot stand being on the fringes of someone else's life forever. In order to salvage everything, a new perspective is needed to safeguard her heart and shine a light on a complicate relationship. -------- If you are reading this book in any other platform other than Wattpad, you are risking both your device and personal data of virtual attacks such as malware or virus.
