      A sexual assault survivor seeks to find her truth, face her truth and speak her truth. Grace once spent the best summers of her life in New Harbor. Now that sheês returned, though, the place just reminds her of all sheês lost: her father, her best friend, her boyfriend and any memory of the night that changed her forever. People say the truth will set you free, but Grace isnêt sure about that. Once she starts looking for it, the truth about that night is hard to find ã and what happens when her healing hurts the people she cares about the most? Marci Lyn Curtis, the critically acclaimed author of The One Thing, has crafted an honest and emotional story that will resonate with the wide range of readers impacted by sexual assault. Sexual assault does not define this story, however, just as it does not define Grace. Wry humor and true love emerge as Grace, like many in the #MeToo era, seeks to find her truth, face her truth and speak her truth.

      ***Hinreißendes Debüt aus den USA*** Maggie hasst ihr neues Leben als Blinde. Sie will keine tapfere Kranke sein, und auf Unterricht von anderen Blinden kann sie gut verzichten. Nach einem missglückten Streich passiert es: Sie kann wieder sehen! Nur einen Ausschnitt der Welt, genauer: einen zehnjährigen Jungen namens Ben. Mit Hilfe des altklugen und hinreißenden Jungen scheint sie einen Teil ihres alten Lebens zurückzubekommen. Und Bens großer Bruder Mason ist Sänger in Maggies Lieblingsband. Und ziemlich attraktiv. Doch er lässt sie abblitzen, weil er denkt, dass Maggie ihre Blindheit vortäuscht – was ja irgendwie stimmt. Dann kommt heraus, warum sie ausgerechnet Ben sehen kann.
