Synopsis via Goodreads
A dark New Adult romance.
You have to understand that we never meant for it to happen. We knew it was stupid. We knew it was wrong.
Eighteen-year-old
Danni Warren has big plans for her last summer before college: a cool
job, a concert she wouldn’t miss for the world, and spending time with
her beautiful girlfriend, Esme. But after one hell of an argument,
Danni’s mother packs her off to stay with her estranged step-uncle,
Gabe, in his lodge on the English coast. So begins a weekend of the
worst punishment imaginable: no phone signal.
With
his sun kissed good looks and sarcastic manner, twenty-nine-year-old
Gabe Asher isn’t anything like Danni expected. She wants to hate
him—he’s her punishment for standing up to her mother—but between
surfing lessons and beach hikes, Gabe and Danni grow
close. Maybe too close.
Now
Danni’s questioning everything: old family secrets, her future, her
strained relationship with Esme. One sun stained afternoon, Gabe and
Danni go too far. And then everything else falls apart…

REVIEW
5 STARS
Whew what a different type of story.Danni has a girlfriend and then gets into a huge argument with her mom so she is sent to live for the summer with her Step-Uncle.This is definitely a book like no other.It was really great and held your attention.I think people need to understand that Danni and Gabe are not related by blood in any way shape size or form.I know there is a stigma to Danni and Gabe,Him being her step uncle but at the same time you can't help but watch that whole stigma disintegrate before you when your reading this story.This was honestly a really great read and I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did. Overall this was an amazing book and I only wish there had been a second epilogue so I could see how a certain person reacted!Job Well done Lucy Morgan!
About the Author
Lucy
writes sharp contemporary fiction, usually with a liberal splatter of
filth. She is a Lyrical Press author and a screenwriter.
Her upcoming new adult novel, TWISTED SUMMER, is a gutsy take on forbidden love starring an even gutsier heroine.
Her
contemporary series, encompassing CHAIRMAN OF THE WHORED and THE
WHORED'S PRAYER, features slick London lawyers with a
penchant for sensual violence. It's definitely on the darker side.
BEAUTIFUL MESS, her current release, is a snarky, sexy friends-to-lovers
romp.
Lucy
is currently working on new novels, and is developing a paranormal
television series with producers (think The Vampire Diaries meets The
4400).
She is still trying to kick her dirty Pepsi habit.
*The prize pack includes A beach bag by pro surf brand Brakeburn, Korres Cherry Lip Gloss, Signed print copy of Twisted Summer, and Luxury chocolate bars from Choccacino Devon.
