    About this audiobook

    Everything happens for a reason.

    At least that's what everyone keeps telling Liam Cooper after his older brother Ethan is killed suddenly in a hit-and-run.

    Feeling more alone and isolated than ever, Liam has to not only learn to face the world without one of the people he loved the most, but also face the fading relationships of his two best friends in the process.

    Soon, Liam finds themself spending time with Ethan's best friend, Marcus, who might just be the only person that seems to know exactly what they're going through-for better and for worse.

    The Ghosts We Keep is an achingly honest portrayal of grief. But it is also about why we live. Why we have to keep moving on, and why we should.

      This is not a romance. Not in the slightest, fyi. This is somewhat of a retelling of the actors own life, with a spin. It was FANTASTIC at depicting grief. It really does evoke that exact feeling. Thanks for writing this! And I cannot wait for the next novel!
