Release Date: September 22nd 2015

Genre: New Adult, Romance, Young Adult

Published by: Swoon Romance

✾ Synopsis ✾

Sixteen-year-old Max Prescott knows all too well the joys of cheating girlfriends and traitorous friends. He's not eager to have his heart trampled again, but money and a fresh start can mean the difference between happiness and a dark path with his name on it.

So when Melly Hewson, a perky and enigmatic classmate, asks him to be her model for a year-long photography project, Max agrees. Melly Hewson is everything Max isn't. She's outgoing, witty and always knows the right words to say. And despite his best efforts, Max finds himself drawn to her.

Still, he isn't stupid. He knows a girl like Melly will only use him and then never speak to him again. Besides, he's been to that rodeo. As long as he keeps his feelings off the market, he won't make the same mistakes as last time.

Yet underneath Melly's sweet smiles lies a secret she'd rather kept hidden. And as the year goes on and the photos pile up, Max and Melly will find themselves developing through the negatives, a story that when told could push them to opposite ends of their world. But the only thing worst than the truth is, the facade that surrounds them.

✿ Excerpt ✿

I was done. Finished. Out.

For the past seven years, I belonged to a division of the government that wasn't on the books. I operated alone. There was a mission: I either failed or succeeded. If I failed, that meant I was dead.

After all the shit I'd seen, done, caused — I survived. It was a fucking miracle.

I was the best at what I did, but there were times I saw my life flash before my eyes. But when you're the government's covert assassin, what else was there to expect. If I was captured, I didn't exist. If I died, I didn't exist. If I succeeded, I was assigned my next mission.

The plane wheels screeched as I touched down in Alaska. Finally, I was where I wanted to be.

At times, I wasn't sure I knew who I was anymore. My identity was erased from the system long ago. For the last three months, I'd been working on getting released from the program. It was a slow process with how deep I was in with Black Division.

Those suits knew I wouldn't share anything I'd done. Hell, half the time I wanted to forget. After three months of debriefing, the government let me out. Of course, there was an underlying threat.

If we so much as suspect you've betrayed this country, consider yourself dead, Mr. Bradley.

Yeah, nothing else was new. I wasn't an idiot. I knew I'd be monitored for years to come, but they wouldn't find anything.

✿ The Author ✿

Kristin Mayer is a wife, a proud mother, and a full-time Analyst and Import Manager. Since an early age, she has always enjoyed reading and writing. While visiting her father one weekend, he suggested that she should take up writing again. With family and a career, she didn't give it a lot of thought, until a story entered her mind and wouldn't leave. It just kept forming and developing over a couple of months.

At the beginning of 2013, she decided to sit down and write it all down, but she kept it to herself. One sentence developed into two, and before she knew it, she had the makings of a novel.

Kristin tries to live life to the fullest during every moment. She loves to travel and meet new people. She holds a degree in International Business and uses it daily in her job. Kristin now adds "author" on her list of jobs, and feels very blessed and thankful.

Was he a hitman? A Navy Seal? Gigolo? I had no idea what Bradley Emerson did for a living. I'd figure it out though, secrets didn’t sit well with me and I loved a challenge. ~ Wiska

I wanted her. I didn't want to want her, but the brain in my head was no longer in control of this vessel. Wanting her went against my rules, but apparently my male member was a rule breaker. ~ Bradley

✿ The Author ✿

I grew up on the beaches of North Queensland, Australia before migrating south to the iconic Gold Coast in 1995. I traded the surf and my bikini for pajama's and a computer when I embarked on writing professionally in 2012.

I write first and foremost for myself. I write characters and ideas that come from my heart, then take shape and evolve into entire landscapes in my mind.

I am fascinated with most creative outlets - photography, art, music, you name it, I love it. I don't take life too seriously and I love to hear from fans and other like-minded, creative people. So drop me a line or come hang out on Facey or over at the Twitter-verse!
