Made Things - Adrian Tchaikovsky
A resourceful street thief and puppeteer makes a pact with two magic-infused puppets in a fantasy tale set in a crime-ridden city.
When I was five years old, I told Toren Grace we were going to get married someday. He'd been my closest friend, my protector, and my rock since the day I was born. But during my senior year, our relationship slowly changed.Silly conversations morphed into serious heart-to-hearts. Innocent friendship turned to stolen glances. Then one day, an unexpected kiss changed everything.While that kiss was all I'd ever dreamed of, it knocked Tor clear off his axis. His strong moral compass makes it impossible for him to accept our feelings for each other. Because, not only am I eighteen and fifteen years younger than him, I'm the one person he should never, ever want.Tor is my father's best friend-my pseudo uncle. Neither one of us can stand to betray or hurt my dad, but we can't keep our relationship hidden forever. Will there be a way for us to find our happily-ever-after? Or will we all be torn apart?
Torn is book one in the All Torn Up series but can be read as a standalone novel.
