I Hold Your Heart Av Karen Gregory

<p><b>The tense, tender must-read book of the summer </b>–<b> perfect for fans of Louise O'Neill and Sara Barnard</b><br><br><i>‘You make me feel like there’s something good in the world I can hold on to,’ Aaron says. He kisses me again, draws me so close it’s almost hard to breathe. ‘I love you, Gem. And I promise I’ll hold your heart forever.’ </i><br><br>When Gemma meets Aaron, she feels truly seen for the first time. Their love story is the intense kind. The written-in-the-stars, excluding-all-others kind. The kind you write songs about. <br><br>But little by little their relationship takes over Gemma's life. What happens when being seen becomes being watched, and care becomes control?<br><br><i>Told in both Gemma's and Aaron's words, this is a raw, moving exploration of gaslighting in teenage relationships that skewers our ideas of what love looks like. </i></p>
