A raw, honest and distinctive novel that dissects the heartbreak, passion, insecurity, obsession, betrayal and joy of modern relationships. For readers of Sally Rooney, Jacqueline Maley, Diana Reid and anyone who has experienced love or heartache in equal measure.
‘Do you think much about love? About how abrupt it is,’ she asked. Gabby hooked her arm through his and stretched on her toes to kiss him. His mouth was dry; she tasted like rainwater. It occurred to Gordon that she was a shadow he might not be able to catch.
Two lonely lives collide on a drug-fuelled night out in Brisbane’s West End. Gabby and Gordon, both lovesick and haunted by childhood wounds, find solace in each other’s arms. But the passion that brings them together isn’t enough in the face of insecurity, jealousy and grief.
In the wake of the intense and turbulent act of falling in – and out – of love, other relationships in their lives start to crumble. How far can Gabby and Gordon push each other, and everyone else they love, before they lose their way back?
