About the main characters:
JOSH- he is the sweetest guy. He met Riley when she was four years old and has been her best friend ever since. That friendship became love and that love shifted into a need to have her be his girl. There isn't anything that he wouldn't do for her even step aside if that meant she would be happy. He loves her enough to wait.
RILEY- she is broken and sad. She no longer believes in love and happy ever afters. She see's cheating, lies, and betrayal as what is real in a relationship. She carries the weight of her parents mistakes on her shoulders. She loves Josh completely, he is her best friend, everything she can't live without. She is full of doubts about what she wants, needs and deserves to have all because of the guilt she bares after a tragic accident that involved her drunk father and Josh's beautiful mother. An accident that changed everything for them both.
DEAN- He is Riley's boyfriend of two years. He is safe because she doesn't love him, half the time she doesn't like him. He is the typical high school boyfriend which means he is selfish and doesn't really care about her either. Why is she with him? Well that is a very good question, one even Riley can't answer herself. She doesn't want to be alone but she isn't okay to give anyone the power to break her heart and Dean doesn't have that power therefore he is safe for her.

About The Author: My name is Andrea Michelle. I am married to my best friend and I am a mom to 3 beautiful daughters that love to dance. I am also a passionate dance teacher and have a huge love for performing arts. New Orleans, Louisiana is where I call home, but Texas is where I live. I love reading, writing and listening to music (in no specific order and with equal passion). I love to capture memories in photographs. I have an addiction to reality television and am obsessed with the Voice at this moment. I love thunderstorms but hate the Spring in Texas. Tornadoes freak me out, I would much rather ride out a hurricane. I cannot survive a day without coffee or sweet tea. I love chatting about books with friends and enjoy getting to know new people. Random fact: My writing was born out of my love for music and singing. I created songs with poetry that I never shared with anyone other than my husband and my loyal notebook. One of my songs and also two of my poems are in my debut novel.
