About this book
À ta portée When Emily finally stops fighting what her heart has been screaming all along—that she needs Gavin—she discovers he's vanished, nursing wounds she inflicted without even trying. Now she's caught between a determined man who won't let her go and the one man she's desperate to find, racing against a clock that feels like it's running out. Will Gavin even give her a chance to explain, or has she waited too long to fight for what really matters? This is a story about second chances, the messy aftermath of heartbreak, and discovering whether some connections are truly worth the chaos.
