From the USA Today bestselling author of Still Beating and The Wrong Heart comes a forbidden, slow-burn age gap romance with high angst and plenty of heat. ***Before he discovered my age, he uncovered my heart. Bruised, abused and victim to a loveless household, I shimmered with new life the moment he found me drowning my sorrows in a lake beneath the stars. A chance encounter. An unspoken connection. I was smitten; he was curious. But, as everyone knew, fate could be decidedly cruel. He called me Halley, like the comet. I called him Reed. And my best friend? Well. . . she called him Dad. Older is Jennifer Hartmann at her best, promising a compelling forbidden romance with gorgeous prose and an unconventional love story to savour.
