Just when she had
finally moved on…<o:p></o:p></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
…He moved back.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
When college freshman
Liz Wagner hears her ex's voice for the first time since he moved clear across
the freaking country, she does what any respectable girl would do: Dive into
the girls' bathroom.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Zach Roberts—the Zach
Roberts—is back. And he’s everywhere Liz looks—infiltrating her friend group,
buddy-buddy with her brother. It’s enough to ruin college altogether. But what
choice does she have but to put on a happy face and pretend he didn't leave her
vulnerable and alone in a pile of emotional wreckage?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Pretending works,
until tragedy strikes and the only person available for comfort is the one
person she wants to stay away from. When Zach turns out not to be the jerk she
convinced herself he was, but the boy she used to love, Liz needs to decide
whether to open her heart again to the boy who tore it out.<o:p></o:p></div>

EXCERPTS:

(Never) Again

I tried to hold my head up and give him a dirty look, but it felt like it weighed nine hundred pounds and I wasn’t strong enough.
Zach’s hand cupped my face, holding it up so I looked into those dark, beautiful eyes of his. Warmth spread across my cheeks, seeping into the rest of my body. He pushed my hair out of my face, tucking it behind my ears. I wanted to be mad, but I didn’t have the energy to care.
“You’re a mess.” His lips turned into the smirk I dreamed about for months after he stopped calling. “What happened to my Lizzie?”
“You left her,” I managed to get out before my eyelids became too heavy and I drifted off to sleep.

(Once) Again

“You scared me,” she whispered, hot against my ear.
“I scared me too. I’m sorry.”
She pulled back, running a hand through my hair. “Don’t be. But maybe it’s time you see someone.
Just to talk. You need to talk.”
Talking scared me more. But her cold hands on my neck, the curves of her body pressed against
me, her scent, Kat . . . that didn’t scare me at all.
“The only thing I need is you.”
As selfish as it was to hold on to her, I couldn’t let her go. In that moment I truly believed my
words. But my problems were bigger than us. I just didn’t know it yet.
