"You and I are like shattered glass; a thousand fragments across the floor. 
Leave us to lie untouched and we'll forever be worthless bits of sharp shapes. 
Connect us, glue us back together, unite the pieces, fill in the harsh cracks and you'll achieve the beauty of a mosaic." 

Oliver and William used to be best friends.
And then Oliver moved.
And then William's parents died. 
And Oliver never called.
And William gave up on him.

Now, however, Oliver Emerson is back in town, and willing to reconnect with old friends, familiar faces. William, on the other hand, doesn't want to spare him a moment of his time. But both of them are beginning to feel things they cannot explain, and as they attempt to reestablish the unexplainable bond they used to share, they'll find themselves seeing one another in a different light. 

Throughout this compelling tale, you will find yourself falling in love with the characters, humor, and romance. Told from two different points of view, both William and Oliver, this story will take you on a "coming-of-age" journey you'll never forget.

This story is my happy place; I do not plan on ever finishing it. It will go on and on like a soapie. Might break it up into volumes later. "Grab a bunch of broken misfits, chuck them in a tribe, add some glitter and loads of weird-as garbage, voila, you've got yourself a fairy tale... kinda... just... you know... minus the fairies..." Paisley Davenport ♫ When Willow Mayfair's life falls apart, her mother brings her to Briar Cove, the small coastal town where she grew up. Living with Rebecca's childhood friend, a new world filled with love, excitement, and friendship opens up for both of them. For everybody who also dreams of a fairy tale and won't care if the "knights" were a little dirty. Genre: Slice of Life/Romance/Humour This is a slow-burn journey through love and life, filled with an array of beloved characters, their sad moments, happy moments and a multitude of bat-sh#t crazy moments. P.S.: This is not a fairy tale... Thank you: Micaela, for helping the characters take on a life of their own and encouraging me to keep on writing. Phillo, for not minding reading girly stories... if it's to help your mom. Jeandré, your weird-as sense of humour and quirky feedback inspires me and keeps me going. ♫ This is a work of fiction.

Sometimes, the one you have in your heart is not the one you have in your arms. --- "I love this book, it's perfect. I finished it in one sitting, I found it that good.
