Together they have stepped in for their alcoholic, wayward mother to take care of their three younger siblings. As de facto parents to the little ones, Lochan and Maya have had to grow up fast. And the stress of their lives--and the way they understand each other so completely--has also brought them closer than two siblings would ordinarily be. So close, in fact, that they have fallen in love. Their clandestine romance quickly blooms into deep, desperate love. They know their relationship is wrong and cannot possibly continue. And yet, they cannot stop what feels so incredibly right. As the novel careens toward an explosive and shocking finale, only one thing is certain: A love this devastating has no happy ending.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTabitha Suzuma is also the author of \"A Note of Madness,\" \" A Voice in the Distance,\" \" From Where I Stand,\" \" \"and\" Without Looking Back.\" She used to work as a primary school teacher and now divides her time between writing and tutoring.
