"It was a kiss to last a year. We melted into each other, desperate to hold on to a part of us, even though we would be so far away. Our tears flowed and mixed together, making the kiss salty and wet.
“Don’t forget any of it,” he said, finally, his voice wracked with emotion.
“I won’t.”
When Tess's mother abandons her during her senior year at high school, she must find a way to keep the secret and survive until graduation. She's surprised when Cruz, her crush and an aspiring model, moves in to help. Tess has dreams of studying in Paris, France and becoming a writer...impossible dreams without money or family. But as Tess and Cruz's relationship grows closer, Cruz will do anything to make sure Tess's dreams come true. But at what price?
Forever Now is the first book in the Forever young adult / new adult trilogy about finding love, living dreams, and overcoming great odds.
Forever begins now.
EXCERPT
I don’t know why I didn’t notice him before because he was the best looking boy I had ever seen. Not really a boy. A man. Maybe nineteen, I figured. He had dark hair and eyes but light skin, and he was tall and muscular. He was beautiful, like a model, shining under the lights.
Perfect.
He shook my mother’s hand, and the three of them walked on the tiled floor further into the house without saying a word to me.
Invisible.
There. That’s the moment my life changed. No, I didn’t realize it, yet. I didn’t know that anything special had happened. I certainly didn’t know that Cruz would save my life, and I would save his—at least for a while. That we would love each other and our love would be dangerous.
