‘Beautiful, real and devastating’
Sarah J. Maas
A moving story of grief, friendship and unforgettable love that fans of Sara Bernard and Nicola Yoon will love from international YA bestselling author Jennifer Armentrout.
Lena has always felt immortal. But one night can change everything.
Lena and Sebastian have been close for as long as anyone can remember. Best friends, even. But secretly Lena has been wanting something more—Sebastian could be more than a friend, if only Lena could figure out how to convince him that they could, and should be together.
But in a single night, after a single party, everything changes and suddenly Lena isn’t thinking about her relationship with Sebastian at all.
The only thing she’s thinking about is trying to piece together what happened that night, and how she was the sole survivor in an accident that left 4 of her friends dead.
Even as her friends and family try to rally around her, Lena pushes them away as the memory of the accident begins to resurface. How will they ever forgive her for what she did? How will Sebastian forgive her?
And how will she ever forgive herself?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In her final year of high school, Lena Wise learns that one split-second decision can alter the future. Four lives are lost after Lena reluctantly lets an inebriated friend drive home from a party. Racked with guilt and struggling to admit the truth of what happened, Lena pushes her friends away, including Sebastian, her best friend and longtime crush, who has just started to become something more. With a powerful message about the destructive effects of drunk driving and the far-reaching consequences of small decisions, Armentrout (The Problem with Forever) presents an effective story of raw grief and gradual acceptance. Lena's guilt is almost tangible ("Talking openly about the accident, about everything leading up to it, just made me want to take a wire brush to my memories"); readers will easily understand her difficulty in moving forward, accepting help and comfort from those around her, and finding a way to forgive herself. Lena's budding romance with Sebastian fits well within the narrative, illustrating that life goes on even in the darkest of times. Ages 14 up.)
