Boys of Riverside

Torn between my best friend and the boy who makes my heart beat again, learning the truth might break me… My entire life changed in an instant. One violent moment took my mother and destroyed me. I can't even remember it. All I know is…it was my fault. Now I'm entering senior year after hiding away from the world for as long as I could. The only distraction I have from the heavy weight of my scars is my best friend, Graham. He's been my rock through it all. When his cousin Atlas appears, my world suddenly tilts on its already unsteady axis. Everyone warns me to stay away from the star football player with a bad boy reputation and a chip on his shoulder. I should… Yet from the moment I climb on the back of his motorcycle, sparks fly. Despite all the reasons to keep him at a distance, my need for the truth about the accident drives us closer. Until the truth destroys everything… Love the Way You Lie is an angsty and emotional YA small town, opposites attract, love triangle romance about two best friends and the broken boy who comes between them on the search for the truth that could change everyone's world.

All I wanted for so long was to remember the car crash that killed my mother. Like it might somehow chase away the guilt and grief that followed her death. But now I remember, and everything has changed. I should be relieved. Instead, I'm angry at the world. My mother. Father. And especially the boy who stole my heart and crushed it beneath his palm. Everyone warned me to stay away from Atlas Scott-the bad boy football star with a reputation for trouble. Maybe I should've listened. But our bond was seemingly unbreakable, forged in the fire of tragedy. Until it wasn't, and everything fell apart. Now, the memories that haunt me are so much harder to manage on the heels of heartbreak. Graham, my best friend, is once again picking up the pieces while I search for vindication in all the wrong places. There's only one catalyst for healing and redemption-Love. Fans of emotional YA romance will fall in love with this sequel to Love the Way You Lie, book two in the Boys of Riverside series.
