《Midnight Walks》f o r e w o r d

▂▂▂▂
Laura Edwards needs a reset. New city, school, people-anything that distances her from the town she once called home. She knows how to bring just enough normalcy in her life so her parents are left assured and her heart is left alone for the impending freefall.
Evan Parker was never supposed to be a part of the mix. He's blunt, mildly infuriating, and is starting to make her feel happier than she deems herself worthy.
Nothing can undo last summer, after all.
But life has a strange way of doing things-and perhaps it's time they realize that they're not mere planets orbiting alongside each other, but two stars on the edge of collision.

✦ i do not tolerate any sort of hate, so please think before you comment. my characters are flawed and they will make mistakes and they'll learn from them.
✦ this book isn't a sports romance. however, there are mentions of basketball numerous times throughout as both the mc's are in the school team - and i am not familiar with the sport (at all). so excuse me if i make mistakes writing about it.
✦ easiest way to contact me is through twitter (@/abrialtales). i also will be posting snippets for my other works, so if that's something you're interested in, check that out :)
✦ to me this book is one big conversation filled with endless banter, so if that is your cup of tea stick around maybe lmao. in short, grab a snack, enjoy, and let's get this started!
thank you, i love you all endlessly.
