Letters to the Lost (Letters to the Lost, #1)

by Brigid Kemmerer

“You were the first person to see all of me, Juliet. The first person who made me feel like I was worth more than a reputation and a record. That’s the hardest part of losing Cemetery Girl. I don’t know if anyone will look at me that same way again.” I draw back and put both hands against his chest, then slide them upward until I find his jaw. He looks away. “I see all of you,” I say. “And I’m looking at you that way now.” He takes my hand, puts it over his heart, and holds it there. His eyes close. “You’re killing me, Juliet.” “Look at me,” I say. He looks at me. “You can’t make your own path with your eyes closed,” I tease. “Watch me.” Then he leans in and captures my mouth with his.
