“People leave. People lie. People let go." - Along with You by Michelle Areaux

"This is a compelling story as the author keeps Blair's secret from readers as well as Blair's new friends, so we discover what she is truly enduring just as they do. It is easy to hope for the best for her, as she is likable and realistic, and her sad belief that she is "not really from anywhere" will speak to teen readers who have had the same experience of moving around a lot and not being able to connect with other kids long enough to create lasting friendships."

Description:

Published: April 6th, 2018

A wonderfully raw new novel by author Michelle Areaux that takes you on an emotional journey as you laugh, cry, and fall in love with the difficult side of being a teenager.

“People leave. People lie. People let go. That is how my world works.”

Sixteen-year-old Blair has never had consistency in her life.
After a traumatic event that Blair’s parents wanted to remain a secret, they began moving her around the country in hopes of starting a fresh, new life.
Only, Blair never stays anywhere long enough to start that new life she keeps expecting. Choosing to rebel instead of conforming to her parents wishes, Blair opts for neon colored hair and a sassy streak that pushes people away before they can hurt her first.

Hunter is your typical southern, small town boy. He’s a good guy with a great heart and a passion for helping others.

When Blair and Hunter meet, sparks begin to fly- but not the way either expected.
As Blair struggles to keep her dark secret hidden, Hunter tries at all costs to win over Blair’s heart and her trust.

Complete opposites come together in this novel that challenges the rules of society and who we are allowed to fall in love with. Sometimes, it takes the wrong person to join along for the ride of your life.
