Norah by Gia Cobie

I really, really screwed up.
Not the part when I saved Ethan from being hit. I’d do that a million times over, even exposing myself, if it kept him from harm. Although it was all my fault, since he was running after me. But I fucked up majorly. Hiding who I am, running from him- all of it was terribly wrong.
No one can know the truth.
Norah lives a solitary life, confined to the rigid boundaries she’s created. It’s not that she wants to be alone, but it’s the only way to keep everyone else safe.
She wasn’t trying to hurt herself. It only seemed that way…
When Norah finds herself the surprised recipient of a rescue attempt, she’s blindsided. Used to being alone, she never expected to be seen by an unlikely savior.
He can’t stop thinking about her.
From the moment Ethan sees Norah, he feels a connection. There’s something between them, and he thinks she feels the same. But she’s determined to keep him at arm’s length. Can he break through her walls and convince her to let him in?
What happens when the truth comes out?
Norah knows she shouldn’t be with Ethan, but it’s increasingly difficult to say no. But she’s afraid if she stays, she’ll end up hurting him. Or worse. And if he finds out the truth about her, she knows she’ll lose him forever.
Is their bond strong enough to withstand Norah’s dark reality?
Can Norah embrace love without hurting the one who loves her?
