I read some other books by Briana Gaitan and reviewed them (my review for The Last Thing HERE and my review for The One Thing HERE). This is a story unconnected to those two books and is a standalone. Take a look at the gorgeous cover and all the info!
To The Steadfast
by Briana Gaitan
Genre: Coming of Age Romance
Cover Artist: Romantic Book Affairs
Release Date: August 31st 2015
Resolute. Firm. Unwavering
That was my love for him.Steadfast for as long as I can remember.
As my best friend's brother, he ignored me before noticing me. He protected me, bought me my first beer, but eventually became my undoing.
There was a time I would have died to get him to notice me, now I'd do anything to forget him.
I'm not the one who can tame him, and he's not the guy who will change for me.
This isn't a story about falling in love, this is a story about falling out of love.
Unrequited love.
And finding the strength to stand up for myself.
Here's to the steadfast.
*This is an standalone story that crosses years from YA into NA genre, due to HEAVY subject matter this book is for ages 16 and up. This is not your typical love story.*

Excerpt:
We don't have drinks this time so instead I raise my hand
for a majestic fist bump. I'm not sure what to wish/salute to this time. Over
the weeks, we've gone through everything. Well, almost everything.
"To love," I say, knocking my knuckles against his.
"To infatuation," he corrects, fist bumping me again.
"No, to the steadfast."
Our eyes connect. Both of us realizing how cruel life can
be, how tempting it is to get swept away in the people that pay attention to us.
