TO THE STARS
A Thatch Series Novel
by Molly McAdams
Available now at
In the second standalone book in New York
Times and USA Today bestselling author Molly McAdams’ Thatch
series, Knox Alexander must convince his long-time love Harlow Evans that
they’re meant to be together.
He
promised to wait for her.
She told
him he was wasting his time.
Not
waiting for him ended up being the biggest mistake of her life.
When they
were younger, Knox Alexander swore to Harlow Evans that he would wait for her
to turn eighteen so they could be together. But that was two and a half years
away, and Harlow couldn’t ask him to give up all the fun and thrills of going
away to college for her. As the years passed, Knox remained a constant in her
life but when her eighteenth birthday came around, Harlow’s heart belonged to
someone else.
Every day
for the last four years, Harlow has been haunted by that fateful choice. And
though he may appear unaffected by what happened in their past, Knox has always
tried to fill the void Harlow left. But when he comes stumbling back into her
life and refuses to leave, will Harlow finally let him into her heart…?
EXCERPT from TO THE
STARS:
“Relationship,” Knox huffed. “Low, I’ve
told you, you could hardly call it that. Besides, I told her about you before
whatever she and I were ever started,” he said. “It’s not my fault she thought
I was joking.”
“Well, it’s kind of weird, don’t you
think? Telling her, ‘hey, sure I’ll be your date for this group thing, but
there’s this girl I’m waiting for, and she’s my priority’, seems like a way to
say you don’t want to get too attached at the beginning.”
“But I told her,” he reasoned.
“You’re horrible.”
“Not horrible. I’m just in love with you,
and I have a year and a half left until I can have you.”
I gripped at my warming chest and tried
to ignore it as I sighed. “I’m going to stop answering your calls whenever you
get a new girlfriend.”
“There won’t be a new one, and I know you
wouldn’t.”
My eyebrows rose even though he couldn’t
see me. “And how do you know that?”
“Because you love me too. Through all
this bullshit, you love me, and you need these calls as bad as I do.”
“I do love you, Knox,” I whispered into
the phone. It wasn’t the first time I’d told him, and I knew it wouldn’t be the
last. “I love you to the moon and back.” My eyes fell to my dresser where my
monthly bouquet of red poppies sat. These had come just a few days ago. The
card, as always, had read: I’m still waiting for you.
“To the moon?” A deep, husky laugh filled
the other end of the phone. “The moon isn’t that far, Harlow.”
“Isn’t it?”
“No. Not far enough.” There were a few
beats of silence before he confessed, “I want to love you to the stars.”
My mouth parted and a soft huff slipped
past my lips. I closed my eyes and let his words replay in my mind and move
through my body as I agreed, “Then to the stars.”
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Molly
grew up in California but now lives in the oh-so-amazing state of Texas with
her husband, daughter, and fur babies. When she's not diving into the world of
her characters, some of her hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, traveling,
and long walks on the beach…which roughly translates to being a homebody with
her hubby and dishing out movie quotes. She has a weakness for crude-humored
movies and fried pickles, and loves curling up in a fluffy comforter during a
thunderstorm ... or under one in a bathtub if there are tornadoes. That way she
can pretend they aren't really happening.
And
don’t miss the first book in the Thatch Series…
