But Georgie had been in love with Travis Ford since she hit puberty and knew his tells. Joking about the chance to improve his golf game. Georgie could still see the heartbreak in his eyes during the sparsely attended press conference announcing his retirement at age twenty-eight. Especially Travis.Īfter a year of physical therapy and being passed between teams like a hot potato, Travis had come home to Port Jefferson. There had never been a doubt Travis would go professional after his sterling college career at Northwestern. Just under two years ago, she’d watched Travis Ford hit a World Series grand slam on live television, along with everyone in town, gathered beneath the new flat-screen television at Grumpy Tom’s. It didn’t seem possible that the town’s baseball phenomenon could fall so far so fast. This time, though, Georgie had been positive Stephen was mistaken. Did she ever listen? Also a definitive no. Empty beer cans skittered along the floor the farther she pushed, the stale stench of unwashed dude reaching out and throttling her. Georgette Castle tucked the stolen key into her pocket, wincing at the creak as she opened the apartment door.

Career Īfter college, Shusterman worked as an assistant at the Irvin Arthur Associates, a talent agency in Los Angeles, where Lloyd Segan became his agent. He finished high school there at the American School Foundation and is quoted as saying that "Having an international experience changed my life, giving me a fresh perspective on the world, and a sense of confidence I might not have otherwise." He attended the University of California, Irvine, where he double-majored in psychology and theater, and was also on the varsity swim team. At the age of 16, Shusterman and his family moved to Mexico City. While he has stated that he does not identify as a person of color, he is between 40-50% North African and likely has Moroccan ancestors, but did not know this until he had genetic testing done.

Neal Shusterman (born November 12, 1962) is an American writer of young-adult fiction. National Book Award for Young People's Literature Shusterman at the 2013 Texas Book Festival More Than Forever is their story it’s the story of their relationship from the very first moment they met, through the highs of first love and the lows that accompany it, but ultimately it’s the story of their life together, forever. It’s the story of Lucy and Cameron, characters we’d previously been introduced to in earlier novels ( More Than This, More Than Her, More Than Him) who fall hopeless head-over-heels in love and share that unique bond that everyone is so desperately looking for. More Than Forever is the fourth book in Jay McLean’s best selling More Than Series. I devoured all three books as soon as I had the chance to read them and have been in love with Jay McLean’s writing ever since. Without having read any of her books, I ordered paperbacks of all three (there was only two released then and the third due for release just before the event) and signed up for a blog tour for her then upcoming novel More Than Him. I first became aware of Aussie Author Jay McLean earlier this year when I was planning to attend the Indie Authors Down Under event in QLD. Man oh man! This is without a doubt Jay McLean’s BEST book yet for as much as I love Jake and Logan, Cam and Lucy’s story stole my heart! There is a promise so sure it can never lie. There is a love so fierce it cannot be measured. |
