I grew up in a small town and couldn't wait to escape. I wanted what I thought being an adult was all about- no responsibility and freedom. In that way, I identify with Xander in ON THE EDGE OF BROKEN PIECES. He also wanted to get out of town and away from all the things that were wrong in his life. ON THE EDGE OF BROKEN PIECES by Elizabeth Arroyo is a realistic romance between two young men who appear as opposites but really have more in common than they think. Now up for preorder, ON THE EDGE OF BROKEN PIECES releases on Sept. 12th. So don't miss your chance! Blurb: One moment changes everything. Xander Morales is close to getting his big ticket out of his crappy life. All he needs to do is continue his therapy sessions, control his anger issues, and pretend that he's not hearing his dead sister's voice. Should be easy, right? Not when he finds himself drawn to the town’s golden boy Olympic gold Medalist snowboarder, Wade Wilson. Wade is gay and comes complete with his own entourage of nosey followers, domineering mother, and handful of rich friends. The guy sends Xander’s emotions into a nosedive. But Xander’s not gay. Nope. Except Wade makes him feel things he's never felt before and Xander finds himself leaning in for a kiss. That kiss. The kiss that would change everything he's ever believed about himself. And he does what he’s been doing all his life. He runs. Because facing the truth of his feelings means giving Wade the broken pieces of his heart and it might just cost Xander everything. Don’t miss this emotional tale of a boy who faces his worst nightmare-snow-all for a boy he doesn’t even think he likes. Fans of Fifteen Hundred Miles from the Sun by Jonny Garza Villa and Adam Silvera’s The History of Us will enjoy this story about a boy who ultimately finds strength in family, friends, and love.
