Amber Smith Synopses: The Last to Let Go is a standalone novel by Amber Smith. Brooke Winters anticipates junior year to be a period of transformation—switching schools, embarking on a fresh start, and outlining plans for college to break free from her hometown, family, and tumultuous past.
However, her aspirations crumble on a scorching summer afternoon when her mother is arrested for the alleged murder of Brooke’s abusive father. The circumstances surrounding that day remain unclear—whether it was premeditated or an act of self-defense, right or wrong. Now, Brooke and her siblings must navigate life on their own.
Amid a year of significant firsts—dealing with the absence of parents, experiencing first love, enduring the pain of first heartbreak, and tasting the first hints of freedom—Brooke grapples with the lingering shadow of her family’s violence and dysfunction. As she strives to embrace her identity, discover her true place in the world, and learn the art of letting go, she confronts the challenges that come with newfound independence.
Something Like Gravity by Amber Smith is a standalone title. Chris and Maia’s aren’t off to the greatest of starts.
Their first connection occurs after a near-fatal car accident, and subsequent encounters continue to be less than smooth. Chris’s well-intentioned efforts often misfire, while Maia struggles to control her temper. However, fate has them as neighbors for the summer, and despite their attempts to avoid each other, they find themselves drawn together.
Navigating their budding connection proves challenging. Chris has come out as transgender, but is still grappling with the aftermath of a traumatic assault he experienced the previous year. Maia, on the other hand, is mourning the loss of her older sister and seeking her place in a world without her. Falling in love was not on their agenda, but what if it happened anyway?
