Blurb
Alaska Stone is a walking wet dream.
My wet dream.
For years, I’ve watched her in the halls, wanted her, but she never knew I existed.
Not until she walked into my chemo session.
For me, it was love at first sight.
For her? It might take a little longer.
But hey, it’s not like we’re on a deadline or anything.

Excerpt
“Come here,” Styx says, giving my arm a weak tug.
“Where?”
“Come lie with me.”
I laugh and shake my head. “I can’t. I’ll squash your lines.”
“They’re plastic; they’ll bounce back.” His face turns serious, and the desperation in his eyes claws at my resolve. “Get your sweet ass up here, Stones. I wanna hold my girl.”
It takes a little maneuvering with his central line and heart-rate monitor, and my IV, but eventually I settle in against his side and he wraps his good arm around me, holding me as tightly as his weak body will allow.
I wish we had the power to make time wait for us.
I’d make it wait forever, right here. I’d use up all of the seconds it’s stolen from me, from us, and the lifetime it’s going to steal from our future. If I had the ability, I’d hit pause right here, and I’d never let him go.
This is the first book by Carmen I have read and I loved it.
It you are a crier you will need tissues. This book is about the big C, cancer.
It’s about two teenagers that have cancer. This book was so funny despite it
being about kids who have cancer. Styx is so blasé about having cancer. He has had
a crush on Stones for a long time. Then she walks into his chemo session. This
is his chance to get to know her. Unfortunately, that means that she has
cancer. It gives him the chance to be there for her. I am not a crier but the
ending got me. I felt for these two. Cancer sucks but to face it so young I think
is worse. These two are trying to live the life they have left. I can’t say
enough about this book. It is a must read for me and I will be recommending it
to others for sure. I look forward to reading some of Carmen’s other books.
