author: Darragh, Lea
description: An emotional novel about not seeing what's right in front of you  --  and not knowing what you've got until it's gone.
  
  Cate has always taken Nick for granted. Through a wild youth of mistakes, bad choices, and self-destructive behavior, Nick has been the one thing that Cate could count on. She knows he loves her, but she can't love him back. He's too perfect, too strong, too caring. She has darkness in her that can't handle that much light.
  
  When an unexpected pregnancy forces them into a marriage of convenience, Cate hopes that Nick can love her enough for the both of them. But as time passes, Nick grows frustrated and finally decides to cut himself loose. Will his absence prove to Cate just how much she needs him?
