Meet Me in the Middle [Hardcover]

Fans of Jennifer Dugan and Laura Taylor Namey will fall in love with this latest YA romance by Wattpad superstar Alex Light, author of The Upside of Falling.

Eden had her best friend Katie—she didn’t need anyone else. But then there was Truman.

Katie’s older brother, the artist. The recluse. The boy with the innocent smile and the dangerous eyes.

Eden had never really known Truman—not until the night of Katie’s accident. That was the night they’d finally let each other into their orbits—only to have the sky come crashing down on them.

With Katie in the hospital and Truman fleeing from his grief without a word, Eden is left alone to grapple with her own pain. But when Truman returns to the city, can Eden let him back into her life knowing that their first kiss is what tore their world apart?

• Best Friend’s Brother:Eden never meant to fall for Katie’s older brother. But Truman, the brooding artist with the dangerous eyes, was impossible to ignore.
• Shared Trauma:Their first kiss was shattered by the tragedy that now ties them together. They’re bonded by a terrible secret and the guilt that comes with it.
• Angsty Teen Romance:He fled from his grief, leaving her to pick up the pieces alone. With so much pain between them, are they doomed to only meet in the middle of heartbreak?
• Dual POV:Told from both Eden’s and Truman’s perspectives, this emotional story explores the depths of guilt, forgiveness, and the healing power of first love.

Light has done it again—this is a great YA contemporary romance. The writing is heartbreakingly beautiful. Readers will immediately be drawn into this interestingly painful journey as the characters try to find their way out of the darkness, alone and together. -School Library Journal (starred review)
