About This Book
Abby knows she's nothing like her older sister Tess. Popular, beautiful, and outgoing, Tess was loved by everyone and the star of her family. And poor Abby was always left behind, nursing her bruised ego...and one important summer, her heart. Abby has erected a wall around her that she's determined no one will ever break down again.
Then the accident happens, and everything changes in an instant. Now Tess lies in a coma in the hospital, and Abby is desperate for her sister to wake up. Lost and confused, Abby misses her sister...but more than that, Abby has no idea who she's supposed to be without Tess overshadowing her. Day after day her sister sleeps while Abby sits at her bedside.
It's at the hospital that Abby meets Eli, the most gorgeous boy she's ever seen...with the most troubling secret. Despite his intense good looks he's shockingly shy, and when Abby finds out why she realizes she's found a kindred spirit. Maybe, just maybe, Abby can let her guard down and trust this guy. And he just might be the one to help her see herself for who she really is.
But in the midst of this budding new relationship, Abby learns a shocking truth about Tess. Turns out this carefree girl had a secret life, one that was too painful and too personal to share. In order for Abby to understand the truth that was always in front of her eyes, all while allowing herself to love and be loved, she must put her trust in the one person she's always pushed aside: herself.
