To twelve year-old Evie Hart, he was just a boy with golden hair, soft t-shirts and a camera. A boy who loved taking her picture and sneaking her chocolates before dinner. A boy who made her feel special.
Despite her family’s warnings, she loved him in secret for six years. They met in empty classrooms and kissed in darkened church closets. Until they couldn’t.
Until the time came to choose between love and family, and Evie chose Abel.
Because their love was worth the risk. Their love was the stuff of legend.
But the thing about legends is that they are cautionary tales. They are made of choices and mistakes. And for Abel and Evie, the artist and the muse, those mistakes come in the form of lights, camera, sex.

Oh my goodness this book……I swear this book has all the feels and it will break your heart. I swear I am going to tell you know that I hated and I am sure you will too Evie’s mother. Oh my goodness I wanted to jump in this book and smack this woman. She is super abusive and poor Evie I don’t think realized it. If you pinch your child hard enough to leave marks you probably shouldn’t touch them at all. I was so mad so many times at this horrible woman and I wanted to yell at Evie to realize she was being abused. This town that the book is written in is a small town. A town that has a story about two people that never should have been together, much less had a child. When that child is brought back into the town tongues are wagging and they are certain he is of the devil and a monster and they make sure that he knows it. Not Evie though. Evie wants to know him from the first moment she saw him. She is after all his Pixie. This is a coming of age story of a boy who becomes a man but has always been told he is a monster. It will steal your heart, break it at times and put it back together, along with some more shocking surprises along the way. I loved every single second of this amazing book.
The kind of love she writes about is flawed just like her characters. And she hopes by the end of it, you’ll come to root for them just as much as she does. Because love, no matter where it comes from, is always pure and beautiful.
