The Boxed set contains three previously published novels nicely wrapped together.
Book one - DULY NOTED -
PTSD sucks.
Just ask nineteen year-old Aurora.
She’s dealt with it for the past two years. Effing car crash.
Resigned to live a mediocre life with her friends Percocet and Xanax, she's coped on her own. Terrified of stepping beyond her backyard, broken and damaged Aurora doesn’t need anyone, anyways. Until she meets - him.
Shy but smoking hot, Nate Johnson has a mouth as smart as hers, and can handle every ounce of sass she dishes out. Immediately, he’s hooked by Aurora’s sarcastic wit. A man on a mission, he wants to help her over her fear of cars. He needs to, if he’s ever going to have her as part of his world – a passion he’s kept hidden from her. As he succeeds with the impossible goal, he finds he’s curing more than just her PTSD, he’s healing her heart.
But when her fears collide with his passion, it drives Aurora away.
From him.
From them.
From the best thing to ever happen to her.
Because sometimes love just isn’t enough.
However, Nate wants her back and he’s willing to give up everything he loves for her. Aurora refuses to have him sacrifice his passion because of her, and dreams up a risky plan to stop him. It’s dangerous. It’s foolish. And if it doesn’t kill her first, it could just save them both.
Book Two -- THAT SUMMER --
Aurora may be named after a fairy tale princess, but she has never believed in happily ever afters—especially since her PTSD won’t let go, and her addiction to prescription pills still taunts her.
Now with only nine weeks to get her shit together and prove herself to Nate, Aurora must find the will to believe in herself so she can stop her true love from making a career ending decision. In order to defeat her darkest fears, she needs help from the only person she trusts with her life—Nate's younger brother, Lucas.
Through therapy and relapses, Aurora and Lucas become best friends. However, deep and dark emotions bubble to the surface threatening both the friendship and everything she’s worked hard to overcome.
When darkness descends, threatening to take you away forever, do you succumb or fight back with all you've got?
Book Three --- IF YOU SAY YES ---
With the help of her best friend Lucas, and a summer of battling her anxieties, Aurora finally thought she'd found Happily Ever After. She lost the love of her life in Nate once before due to her PTSD and painkiller addictions, and wasn't going to lose him again.
But was he ever really hers?
She thought being able to ride in a car after the accident that sacrificed her momma and sister would be enough for him.
She thought keeping her prescription drug use at the recommended dose would be enough for her.
She thought juggling her romance with Nate and her friendship with his brother Lucas would be enough for everyone.
But in Aurora's world, Happily Ever After is just the beginning.
