She's the light to his darkness . . . and he's the savior she didn't want.
Lily Reyes is trying to win the fight against depression. Well, more or less trying as childhood trauma lets her believe that the world is too cruel to live in.
In Lily's world, everything makes as much sense as breathing under water. Yet, as she's writing her goodbyes, Lily makes one little mistake.
She accidentally leaves her notebook for him to find.
Colin Carter is the captain of the St. Trewery hockey team; a man who offers more than just looks. He's facing struggles of his own, ones he feels too guilty to talk about. And still . . . Lily's life now lies in his hands.
And in only nine days, he sure does flip her whole world upside down. Feelings get involved, hearts break, mistakes get fixed, and old passions reignite. But will that be enough?
Will nine days change everything? Will nine days convince Lily that there is more to life than pain and sorrow?
