A chance meeting between two young souls is all it took...

When Adalynne Fairweather was just a child, her entire life had already been planned. From Ivy League schools to a career in law, adventure was the one thing out of her reach. That was until a boy with bright green eyes and a monster truck t-shirt wandered into her back yard, giving the adventure she longed for.

Refuge can be found in the most unlikely places…

Damon Knight’s abusive home life left him longing for a childhood he never had—until he wandered into Adalynne’s yard. She took his hand, smiled at him, and even gave him a nickname. Fox. The woods became their escape—a place to flee from reality. He discovered music through Adalynne’s piano, and not long after that, she gave him a guitar. Little did he know that gift would change his life forever.

Years later, their age is not the only thing that’s changed...

Adalynne’s love for Fox took on a life of its own. As they begin to build their lives, her heart aches for him in ways she can’t understand. As they slowly begin to drift apart, Adalynne becomes more desperate to cling to their secret romance.

But Fox is no longer the bright-eyed child from the woods. Her shy, beautiful Fox has grown into a dark, troubled man with a guitar. And when her last attempt to salvage their relationship breaks Adalynne’s heart, catching Fox a second time seems just out of her reach.

★EXCERPT★

When the set finished the band exited the stage. Adalynne watched Fox leave and she realized how much she missed him. An unbearable ache formed in her chest. People began shuffling around the room and music blasted on the speakers surrounding them. A heavy beat thrummed through the entire club, keeping the good mood alive and thriving in the many bodies that lined the floor.

“I’m going to check my messages.” Adalynne held up her phone. “I can’t hear anything here.” She didn’t wait for anyone to respond. Leaving her seat, she headed toward the back of the bar toward the restrooms.

“I’m coming with you.” Katie jumped up and followed on Adalynne’s heels through the crowded floor of people. When they were away from the guys, Katie pulled up beside her. “What was going on with you and Brolan Pierce? Do you know him? Please tell me you know him. You were practically eye doing each other.” Katie looked up at Adalynne’s face. “Oh my God! You know the lead singer of Outcome? Why didn’t you tell me you knew him? Is he the one you’re so hung up on?” Katie’s eyes could not get any wider as she stared at her. Her nails were digging into Adalynne’s arm.

“Katie, please be quiet.” Adalynne noticed the girls waiting in the bathroom line turning to observe their conversation. “Yes, I know him and I didn’t tell you because that’s not his real name. I didn’t know it until he walked onstage. It was a long time ago. Anyway, I’m not that hung up.”

“Oh please. You barely look at all the hot guys that practically drool on you. Look at Matthew over there. He’s not used to having to work to gain a girl’s attention. He’s used to girls handing him a free pass to their vaginas. Besides, I have never seen two people look at each other like that. I thought he was going to jump off the stage. It was beyond attraction.” Katie looked like she was going to swoon as she leaned against the wall.

“Do me a favor and forget about it.” Adalynne tried to dismiss their conversation. She listened to the message her mother left telling her everything was still fine.

“Why should I forget? You obviously can’t.” Katie folded her arms across her chest. She stomped her foot defiantly. “You cannot let this opportunity slip by. I seriously want to strangle you! You should be asking to speak with him. He owes you that much after he eye-fucked the hell out of you onstage!”

“Oh my god, Katie! It wasn’t like that. He was probably just surprised to see me.” Adalynne shrugged her shoulders and tried to seem casual. “He never wanted me like that and he doesn’t now.”

“Are you Adalynne?” A tall man dressed completely in black came to a stop in front of her. He looked like he walked out of the gym after spending most of his life there. A black shirt stretched over his massive chest, his hair was cropped short, and his severe eyes glared at her with a very serious expression. He had the science of intimidation down perfectly and Adalynne just nodded at his question, backing up against the wall.

“Will you follow me?” he continued, taking a step back, expecting her to comply but halted when she did not move.

“Why?” she asked when he looked back at her.

“You are requested by Mr. Pierce,” he stated simply, his patience wearing thin.

“I’ll cover for you!” Katie pushed Adalynne toward the large security guard. Adalynne looked back over her shoulder at Katie, who continued to wave her on encouragingly. The eyes of all the other girls who witnessed the scene stared after her as well.

Adalynne tried to calm her breathing as she followed the man through a dark, narrow hallway until he came to a door and knocked. The door opened narrowly but Adalynne couldn’t see in the room at her angle.

“Adalynne,” he said to the person who opened the door. The door closed and a moment later it swung open wide and Adalynne watched the band members leave the room. They nodded approvingly at her. The one she recognized from the drums spoke to her as he passed. “Hello there, beautiful.” Adalynne tried to manage a smile in return but she was overwhelmed with nerves. He smiled widely at her before continuing down the hall with the others.

Adalynne didn’t move. Her feet felt planted in place until the security guard gave her a gentle nudge of encouragement. She walked in slowly and he closed the door behind her, narrowly missing her. Adalynne took in the room. The sofas were covered in discarded clothing. The walls were covered with posters and framed photographs.

Fox walked out of a connecting room with a beer in his hand. His hair was messy like he had just run his fingers through it. He leaned against the door frame and stared at her from across the room. The emotions that overcame her were crippling. She had been living so long without her heart and now it was right in front of her and yet so far. She couldn’t think of anything more striking than his muscled lean frame. The way his jeans hung so low and how his shirt hugged his body that held a promise of so much pleasure. He was a drug to her and she was addicted to him in every sense of the word.

“You are so beautiful.” His voice was raw from singing. He walked over to the sofa and sat down, not taking his eyes off her. “I can’t get you out of my fucking head.” Fox ran his hand down over his face.

★REVIEW★

This story is so crazy and emotional. Adalynne lived a kind of lonely life and then one day on her sixth birthday a little boy wondered into her yard. The boy was scared and ready to flee she named him fox and he named her bee. The story continues with them growing up and their relationship changing as they grew. When their senior year comes around Adalynne convinces her parents to let her go to public school which happens to be the same school Fox goes to. She didn’t tell him over the summer because she wanted it to be a surprise. But she was the one who got a surprise. Fox acted like he didn’t even know her and he had a girlfriend he never told Bee about. Adelynne was so hurt because of this but tried to get over it. Now she is in college and hasn’t seen him in some time. Things are about to change for Adalynne. She has decided that she needs to try and move on; she loves Fox with everything she is but he doesn’t love her back so she needs to try and move on. She decides this after a chance encounter with him at a bar where she learns he is the lead singer in her friend’s favorite band. This starts them on a part where they are always running into each other. This makes it incredibly hard for Adalynne to move on from him. Every time she sees him she just wants to run to him and for him to love like she loves him. Fox does love her but doesn’t think he is good enough for her. Will they be able to work things out and be together or is fate just being mean? This book is all over the place emotionally. Fox has a terrible home life. Adalynne lives a fairly sheltered life. Adalynne manages to mean so much to Fox and never really realizes it until much later when she has almost given up. I was worried before I started to read this book. I liked it based on the synopsis but then I read some of the other reviews and some made the book seem really bad. The kind where the girl just throws herself at the guy no matter what he does. That isn’t what happens. Adalynne does try to move on however your heart loves who it loves. When Fox does something mean to Adalynne she doesn’t just stand there like a door mat and let him do whatever he wants to her. She stands up to him and yells back. This was a great story yes on the sad side but it’s also romantic and more. I highly recommend this book. It’s the first book by Aimee McNeil that I have read and I really enjoyed it. I was completely pulled into the story. Sometimes I wanted to jump in the book and shake Fox but later it all made sense. There are a few twists and turns thrown in that make things fall into place and reveal secrets that neither Fox not Bee knew about. I look forward to reading more books by Aimee McNeil in the future.
