Blurb:
It should have been simple—a summer spent with
his girlfriend Zara at her family’s holiday cottage in Cornwall.
Seventeen-year-old Luke Savage jumps at the chance, envisioning endless hours
of sunbathing on the private beach and riding the waves on his beloved
surfboard. He isn’t interested in love. Though his rugged good looks and lazy
charm mean he can have his pick of girls, he has no intention of falling for
anyone.
Nothing prepares Luke for his reaction to Theo, the
sensitive Oxford undergraduate who is Zara’s cousin and closest friend. All at
once, he is plunged along a path of desire and discovery that has him
questioning everything he thought he knew about himself. No one, especially
Zara, must find out; what he and Theo have is too new, too fragile. But as the
deceit spirals beyond their control, people are bound to get hurt, Luke most of
all.

Excerpt:
I swallow against the dryness
in my throat. “We need to talk.”
No response.
Slowly, as though wading
through deep sand, I cross the room until I’m standing right behind him. He
grips the edge of the worktop.
“Theo?”
Still nothing. Only the
convulsive tightening of his fingers shows he even heard me.
“Theo,” my voice cracks, “don’t
do this.”
Theo sucks in a breath. When he
replies, his tone is even. “Do what?”
“This. Shutting me out.”
“I’m—”
“And don’t say you’re not,
because we both know that isn’t true.” I’m aware of my voice rising, and lower
it with an effort. “Just…don’t.”
Theo exhales in a long sigh. He
turns to me, his expression distant but not unkind. I wish he’d glare at me,
shout, whatever. Anything to show he gives a damn.
“Luke, I’m sorry about this
morning. It was a mistake. If you got the wrong impression—”
“The wrong impression? You
kissed me. What impression was that supposed to give me?”
He casts a nervous glance at
the window.
“What’s wrong, Theo? Worried
Giles might hear? I don’t blame you. He’d probably make you bathe in
disinfectant for a year if he knew you’d kissed scum like me.” Theo starts to
protest, but I shake my head. “You know what? Forget it. So sorry I embarrassed
you.”
I need to get out of here.
Humiliation, hot and clammy, coils like tar through my veins. Still, what did I
expect? Theo’s made it perfectly clear how he sees me, that he thinks I’m
beneath him. I grab for the nearest glass, intending to pour myself a liver
full of whatever’s in that jug, but my hand shakes so much it slips through my
fingers. Glass collides with oak in a minor explosion, glittering fragments
flying.
“Shit.” I drop to my knees,
begin picking up the larger pieces. I fumble, a jagged shard slicing my palm.
“Shit.”
“Luke?” Theo crouches beside
me.
“I’m fine.” I turn away from
the phony concern in his eyes, fist clenched around the cut to hide it from
view. Blood trickles through my fingers and onto my jeans. The pain is almost a
relief.
“Let me see.” Theo holds out
his hand, but I jerk away.
“I said I’m fine.”
He ignores me. With gentle
firmness, he takes hold of my wrist, uncurling my fingers to examine the wound.
My body stills. I scarcely breathe. Every nerve ending, every particle of my
being is aware of him, the pressure of his fingers on my wrist, his warm palm
supporting the back of my hand.

Meet the author:
Jamie lives in a tranquil spot close to the River Thames in
Berkshire, England, and has always been just a little out of place—the only
redhead in a family of brunettes; an introvert far more at ease with dogs than
with people; a connoisseur of simple pleasures in a society intent on the quest
for wealth and fame. Despite an outward cynicism, Jamie is a romantic at heart,
and, when not immersed in a book, can mostly be found writing emotional stories
where young men from all walks of life are thrust headlong into the breathless,
euphoric, often painful whirlwind called love.
