'An achingly romantic, compulsively readable love story - with chemistry that burns up every page. Emma Brodie has rendered an intoxicating portrayal of the power and intensity of human connection' TAYLOR JENKINS REID
'The?truth is?there's no such thing as a normal life.?There's just?the?time you get and how you spend it.'
In?the?summer of 2000, seventeen-year-old AJ Graves dreams of being a writer; instead, she's stuck working in a video rental store, with slim odds of escaping her small town and large family.?Then in walks?the?enigmatic and intense Noah Drew, of?the?infamous Drew acting dynasty, and her life changes forever. Despite wildly different upbringings,?the?two forge a deep bond first as friends,?then as acting partners, until?the?day Noah disappears?without a word.
Seven years later in New York City, AJ is shocked to find herself cast in?the?same TV production as Noah, by?then a well-known Hollywood heartthrob. As?their on-screen characters grow closer every day,?the?lines between reality and acting begin to blur. Unable to stay away from each other, AJ and Noah are forced to confront?the?truth of what happened years ago -?and?the?devastating secret that will send?their lives careening apart, even as fate continues to draw?them together.
Blending explosive chemistry, devastating emotion and unforgettable characters,?INTO THE BLUE?is an extraordinary novel that asks you to believe in?the?power of telling your own story, even if you know how it's going to end.
'This book was like nothing I've ever read before: both Gothic and geeky, hilarious and heart-wrenching, a masterclass in scorching sexual tension and a poignant meditation on the true meaning of intimacy. Into the Blue is my new obsession, and it will be yours, too' LAYNE FARGO
'At once joyful and heartbreaking, INTO THE BLUE is a compelling and powerful portrayal of the magic and devastation of true love. AJ and Noah's story burns with chemistry, and simmers with nostalgia and longing. An epic, special and unforgettable read' HOLLY MILLER
'Expertly weaving an epic tale of star-crossed lovers for the modern era, Brodie reminds us what it's like to be wildly, desperately in love-and that, often despite our better judgment, there's no escaping the pull of a true soul mate. Into the Blue will have you transfixed . . . and reminiscing about that very first person who stole your heart' MIKKI BRAMMER
