The Summer We Found Us - Ella Kit

\nCould one summer at the lake house change everything? \n \nElijah Thorne \n \nTobias was my best friend. My everything. We swore nothing would break us. \n \nThen high school started, and he shattered that promise-trading me for a perfect image and people who never really mattered. \n \nAfter a traumatic event tore apart what little bond we had left, I did the only thing I could-I ran. Left our small town for school, desperate to erase Tobias and the feelings I never wanted to name. \n \nBut now I'm back for the summer. And he's still here. Still tangled in everything I tried to leave behind. Still breathtaking. Still impossible to ignore. \n \nTobias Voss \n \nElijah doesn't get it. Maybe he never will. \n \nHe doesn't know the truths I've had to bury. The secrets I've had to keep. He doesn't understand that I never wanted to hurt him. How he's always been the most important person to me. That I've never stopped- \n \nNo. I can't go there. \n \nBut summer came too fast, and the longer we're stuck in this lake house, the harder it is to keep pretending. \n \nPretending that we were the problem when, in reality, it was everything else. \n \nMaybe this summer is our last chance to get it right. \n \nThe Summer We Found Us is a mature, college/new adult, childhood best friends-to-enemies-to-lovers HFN MM romance with dark themes.
