Book Description
Sequel to Vivaldi in the Dark Three years after that first meeting in a theatre storeroom, Jayden Phillips and Darren Peace are separating for the first time, trading in school for the trappings of adult life. Jayden has achieved his dream of a place at Cambridge University; Darren has achieved his own of escaping the Cold War of home and tasting true independence for the first time. A hundred miles apart and embarking on two very different paths, Jayden feels it is inevitable that time and distance will slowly pull them apart. School relationships, after all, don't last. Darren disagrees -- at first. Love is all they need, and they have weathered harder storms than chasing dreams. That is until the separation, and the encroaching influence of Jayden's new friends, begins to take its toll on Darren's mental state. Alone, he descends in a rapid downward spiral that is finally arrested by one night and a drastic course of action. In the wake of a single unanswered phone call, Jayden learns that time and distance have the power to do much more than break a relationship. The dream is over -- and the reality is far, far worse.

Book Description
*This is a new adult romance not meant for those under 18. It contains sex, drugs, and under age drinking.The first time I ever saw Caden Harper I'm pretty sure I fell in love. All that golden hair and pale blue eyes. He was mysterious and covered in paint. I found it endearing and wanted nothing more than to find out all his secrets. I gave that man things I would never give anyone else. He blew it though. Which I shouldn't be surprised considering he is a womanizer.So I moved on, well kind of. Jaden Harper wasn't what I expected. I found myself drawn to him almost as much as his brother. Maybe it's the fact they are twins or maybe it was the fact I wanted to live on the wrong side for once in my life.Now I've found myself dug deep in this game. There's no end in sight and I wonder when all the lies I have told will come back to haunt me. Neither man should know the things I've gone through. Neither should trust me. I'm not who I say I am. My past is full of things I won't ever share.But where will that lead me when Caden wants nothing more than to consume me? He won't wake up to see he has the wrong kind of love.My Name is Grace Breadfield and this is my story.*While this title is a part of the Young Love series, it can be read as a standalone. There is a HEA and no cliffhanger.
