Description
Sub Rosa: Latin Adjective - Adverb "Happening or done in secret" A rich girl pays a guy in a questionably bloody shirt to drive her cross-country to see her older sister. ------------ Ashley River, second heiress to her parent's billion-dollar fortune and future doctor, wants to travel to California to see her older sister one last time before she has to begin her first year of college. Her wish seems like it will be unfulfilled until she (quite literally) bumps into the weird boy from her father's Christmas party four years ago. Leo Sampson, a simple young man who is only interested in escaping to him and his uncle's cabin for his birthday, finds himself in a hospital after things go array. And soon, he crosses paths with the quiet girl from that stressful Christmas party four years back. With Ashley seeking an opportunity to visit her sister and Leo now in desperate need of money, the two end up going on the craziest summer road trip of their lives that needs to be sub rosa. A coming of age story filled with drama, emotional baggage, and a sweet romance. ------------------ ***CONTENT WARNING*** THIS BOOK IS NOT INTENDED FOR YOUNGER READERS AND CONTAINS CERTAIN THEMES THAT MAY BE TRIGGERING FOR SOME: •Profanity •Violence •Mentions of abuse (child/domestic) •Mentions of sexual assault
