The only person poetry-loving Cali Monroe hates more than herself is Logan
Waters, the geeky kid who lives in the dorm building next to hers.
Ever since Cali's parents told her she would amount to nothing, she has felt
entirely inadequate. Friendless and alone, she takes on the mean girl role in
hopes it will make her feel better--and Logan serves as the perfect target. He
infuriates her with his obnoxiously long lashes, his all too perfect dimpled smile,
and his complete lack of personality outside of his intelligence. It doesn't hurt
that he's part of the reason her brother is dead, either. So Cali hates him, and
he returns the favor. Thus, their prank-filled, insult-driven rivalry is born, and
torturing Logan quickly becomes the highlight of her life.
But when Cali's parents set them up on a blind date, she begins to realize Logan
might not be as boring as she always thought. He shares her love of poetry,
takes a sadistic pleasure in making fun of crepes, and he makes her blush when
he calls her smile pretty.
And hey, maybe those long lashes of his aren't that obnoxious after all…
Two Roads is New Adult Romance about finding love, standing out, and learning
to embrace who you are. It contains some language and mild sexual content.
“Then go to him,” I say quietly, and now I look up to meet her gaze. Her brown
eyes are hard and strong, watching me intently. “Go out with him,” I continue. “Or
don’t. But don’t let him go. Because if someone can be constantly on your mind
like that, if they can always make you smile, if they can cheer you up one way or
another, then you have to go to them. You have to tell them what they mean to
you and then you can go out with them or you can stay friends or you can barely
ever talk to them, but you enjoy yourself, you have fun, and then you hold fast to
them and never, ever let them go. Because if someone, just by their existence,
can brighten up your whole day, you have to try like hell to keep them in your
life.” I take a long breath as soon as the words finish tumbling out of my mouth, a
jumble of thoughts and feelings that, for me, couldn’t be more true. I don’t know
where they came from other than straight from that goddamn unpredictable heart
of mine, and as soon as the words leave my mouth, I know my subconscious has
been working on them for a long time.
