The Wreckage of Us
Book Feature - The Wreckage of Us by Brittainy Cherry
HBL Note: Toward the beginning of the pandemic (way back in April), the publicist working on this book reached out and offered this title for consideration, with a personal note that she loved the book. At the time, it felt weird to be promoting books when there was so much unknown about the pandemic and we were all being asked to make huge life adjustments and even bigger sacrifices. However, she described this novel as, “an uplifting romance about what happens when life tries to tear love apart… and the power of resilience.” And I thought we could all use something a little uplifting about the power of resilience.

From the publisher:
Never in a million years did I think it would be Ian Parker who saved me...
I know I should stay away from Ian Parker.
But when my drug-dealing stepdad kicks me out, I have nowhere to go. Squatting in an abandoned shed on Ian’s grandpa’s farm seems like as good a plan as any.
Ian finds me there, of course, and he insists on me moving into his spare room. I should say no, but the appeal of a roof and a warm bed is too much. Not to mention Ian’s brown eyes and strong arms.
We’re nothing alike, but the spark between us is undeniable. My life is finally looking up.
Until I call the cops on my stepdad and unintentionally get my pregnant mom arrested.
Now I have to sacrifice my dreams to take care of my mom’s baby. She’s the only family I have left. Meanwhile, Ian’s band is taking off; his dreams are coming true.
Ian is my one chance at love. I just hope he doesn’t become the one chance that got away.
