Summary

From international bestselling author Kim Holden comes an inspiring, life-changing story about the power of love in all its forms, having the courage to live life to the fullest, and always looking on the bright side.

Amazon Top 20 Bestseller

Book one of three in the Bright Side series

Kate Sedgwick’s life has been anything but typical. She’s endured hardship and tragedy, but throughout it all, she remains happy and optimistic (there’s a reason her best friend Gus calls her Bright Side). She’s quick-witted, endlessly passionate about music, the first to offer a smile, and the kind of loyal that most friends only dream about. The one thing that escapes her optimism is love. She’s never bought into it, never believed in it. So, when Kate leaves San Diego to attend college in the small town of Grant, Minnesota, the last thing she expects is to fall hard for Keller Banks.

They both feel it.

But they each have a reason to fight it.

They each have a secret.

And when secrets are revealed,

they may heal you,

or they may end you.

Note from the author: Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is recommended for mature audiences.

A tear jerker

OMG!!! my poor broken heart 😭😭 I need a box of tissues.
Such a beautiful and moving romance. Very Gripping,
Although I have to be up early in the morning for work, I had to stay up late to get to the end.

Beautifully written and well narrated by two of my favourite Narrators. A credit well spent.

Well done, 🥰🥰

Heartbreakingly beautiful !!!

This is one of the most beautiful, heartfelt books. I loved exploring what love and loss looks like and the multicoloured facets of being human.

I feel like a better person after reading or listening this incredibly story.

The narrators were the magnificent and this story will stay with me always!

Thank you!
