Synopsis

Oliver's absence split us wide open, dividing our neighborhood along a fault line strong enough to cause an earthquake. An earthquake would have been better. At least during an earthquake, you understand why you're shaking. Emmy and Oliver were going to be best friends forever, or maybe even more, before their futures were ripped apart. But now Oliver is back, and he's not the skinny boy-next-door that used to be Emmy's best friend. Now he's the boy who got kidnapped. A stranger - a totally hot stranger! - with a whole history that Emmy knows nothing about. But is their story still meant to be? Or are they like the pieces of two different puzzles - impossible to fit together?

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Emmy just wants to be in charge of her own life.

She wants to stay out late, surf at her favorite beach—go anywhere without her parents' relentless worrying. But Emmy's parents can't seem to let her go—not since the day ten years ago when her best friend, Oliver, disappeared.

Oliver needs a moment to figure it all out.

He'd thought, all these years, that his father was the good guy. He never knew that his dad had kidnapped him and kept him on the run. Discovering it all at once—and returning to his old hometown—has his heart aching and his thoughts swirling.

Emmy & Oliver were going to be best friends forever.

They could have been even more, before their futures were ripped apart. To Emmy, despite the space and time between them, their connection has never been severed. But is their story still meant to be? Or are their hearts like the pieces of two different puzzles—impossible to fit together?

Revue de presse :

"Robin Benway writes with her full heart. Emmy & Oliver is a genuinely sweet and funny novel bursting with the inextinguishable forces of love-between parents and children, distant and inseparable friends, new and reunited lovers." Stephanie Perkins, New York Times bestselling author of Isla and the Happily Ever After
"Emmy & Oliver is wonderful. Funny, heartbreaking, and true. Robin Benway has written characters I felt like I'd known forever, and was so sad to see go. A must-read." Morgan Matson, author of Since You've Been Gone
