Love and Other Lost Things — Melissa Wiesner

A completely heart-wrenching, tear-jerking, and unforgettable romance, perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover and Paige Toon. When two lost souls are thrown back together, is it far too late to fix their broken hearts?

High school seniors Jane and Nik are inseparable. Best friends who share all their hopes and dreams -- and one day, their first stolen kiss. But that day soon becomes the best and worst of Jane's life…

Because there's one thing Jane has never been able to share with the truth she carries about a devastating family secret. To protect Nik, Jane is forced to make a heartbreaking choice. Stay in town and risk Nik's life being destroyed. Or run far, far away and never see him again…

Ten years later. After news reaches Jane of her father's death, she finally comes home, where bittersweet memories of Nik wait on every quiet street. And when she bumps into him, the years melt away in a single instant.

Nik is broad-shouldered now and stands over six feet tall, but his deep brown eyes are just the same. Jane takes in Nik's blue scrubs and doctor's ID badge, happy that at least one of them got to live their dream. And when he breathes her name and caresses the fresh bruise on her cheek -- like he can't help but touch her -- her heart speeds up just like the first time they kissed.

But Nik still doesn't know the real reason she left town. Or who put that bruise on her cheek…

Jane knows the truth would destroy him. So why can't she stay away from the boy who broke her heart? And when the past comes calling, will it tear them apart forever?

Love and Other Lost Things will shatter your heart, make you sob with joy, and remind you of the beautiful pain of lost love.
