Before You Break

By Stone

Two sisters. A haunting tragedy. Love can save them-if the past doesn't destroy them first.

Eight years after tragedy shattered their family, the McKenna sisters are still broken. Responsible Lyra hides her past―and her heart―behind her camera lens, keeping everyone at arm's length. Reckless Lux escapes into a world of pills, parties, and dangerous boys. Anything to forget the darkness trapped inside her own head.

When their father suffers a massive heart attack, Lyra is compelled to return to a house haunted by resentment, secrets, and lies. Coming home also means facing her former crush-handsome, charming Ethan, now a single father. Lyra glimpses a future that just might include a love she never expected. Or believed she deserved.

But how can she open her heart to new love when the past won't let either sister go?

As devastating secrets resurface, Lux spirals dangerously out of control. To save her sister, Lyra must risk everything to confront the truth of what really happened that night, but the truth might just break her, too.

From USA Today Bestselling Author Kyla Stone comes a vivid, poignant novel exploring secrets, sisterhood, young love, and the power of the past to heal or destroy us. Perfect for fans of John Green and Colleen Hoover.
