Inhaltsangabe

The Fault in Our Stars meets Go Ask Alice in this dramatic romance about a teenage girl who survives a terminal cancer diagnosis, only to get trapped in the deadly spiral of addiction. Fans of Gayle Forman and Sara Zarr will be swept away by this gritty romance, the first in a duology.

Evie is living on borrowed time. She was diagnosed with terminal cancer several months ago and told that by now she’d be dead. Evie is grateful for every extra day she gets, but she knows that soon this disease will kill her. Until, miraculously, she may have a second chance to live.

All Evie had wanted was her life back, but now that she has it, she feels like there’s no place for her in it—at least, not for the girl she is now. Her friends and her parents still see her as Cancer Girl, and her boyfriend’s constant, doting attention is suddenly nothing short of suffocating.

Then Evie meets Marcus. She knows that he’s trouble, but she can’t help falling for him. Being near him makes her feel truly, fully alive. It’s better than a drug. His kiss makes her feel invincible—but she may be at the beginning of the biggest free fall of her life.

• Survival and Addiction: After beating terminal cancer, Evie faces a new battle. This time, the enemy is a prescription pill addiction that promises escape but threatens to take everything she has left.
• Heartbreaking Story: A raw look at grief, identity, and the dizzying journey of a girl who gets a second chance at life, only to find she doesn't know how to live it.
• Mental Health Fiction: Evie's doting boyfriend and loving family see her as the girl who survived, trapping her in a past she's desperate to escape. Only Marcus, a boy who's trouble, makes her feel seen for who she is now.
• Emotional Rollercoaster: From the sterile halls of a cancer ward to the dizzying highs of first love and the terrifying lows of a deadly spiral, this gritty YA novel is an unflinching portrayal of a life lived on the edge.
