That Summer by H.M. Shander

When all seems lost, do you give up forever or fight with all you have?

After a car crash tore them apart, Nate makes a heart-breaking decision to walk away from his dream to win back Aurora’s heart. When she learns of his intentions, she hatches a plan to stop his career-ending announcement.
With only a few short weeks to get her shit together, Aurora must find the will to believe in herself and push beyond her comfort zones. Needing serious support, she reaches out to the only other person she trusts with her life—Nate’s younger brother, Lucas.
Through therapy and relapses, Aurora and Lucas become best friends. However, highly charged emotions bubble to the surface threatening both the friendship and everything she’s battled in effort to save Nate.
Will her plan work, or will it cause her to self-destruct?

That Summer is the expanded portion of Duly Noted readers craved.
A story of love and courage, and the blossoming of a beautiful friendship between two lost souls. It is a standalone novel, but it’s highly recommended to read Duly Noted first.
