A life-changing road trip. So strap in, because this is going to be one hell of a ride. 'Bold and romantic, Run Away With Me is a road trip thriller that starts at high speed and doesn't let up.' Erik J. Brown, author of All That's Left in the World Jessie 'Mouse' Swift needs to get the hell out of Seattle. A few days ago she admitted to wanting her abusive stepfather dead, only to come home and find his murdered body. So when a girl from school offers Jessie a ride in her vintage red Mustang, they embark on an unexpected road trip across America. Brooke Summer is everything Jessie isn't- popular, confident, wealthy and heart-stoppingly beautiful, and Jessie has been in love with her from afar for years. But Brooke is hiding her own secrets . . . With the cops and other sinister figures on their tail, how long can Jessie and Brooke stay on the run before they're caught? And as their friendship blossoms into something more, can they find a future worth running to together? A coming-of-age thriller-romance, perfect for fans of Holly Jackson, Casey McQuiston and Tess Sharpe, with a nod to Thelma & Louise and Drive-Away Dolls. PRAISE FOR RUN AWAY WITH ME- 'A thrilling joy ride of unexpected twists and turns.' Benjamin Dean, author of How to Die Famous 'A thrilling, evocative coming-of-age story. I devoured it.' Cynthia Murphy, author of Win Lose Kill Die 'Run Away With Me is the emotionally - and literally - high-stakes road trip book I never knew I needed. Buckle up, because you're in for one heck of a ride.' Kayvion Lewis, author of Thieves' Gambit 'Don't start Run Away With Me late at night as you won't be able to stop reading. A sublime debut. A perfectly executed road trip romance with lots of thrills.' Elle McNicoll, author of Some Like it Cold 'What a ride! What a thrilling, soulful, life-affirming ride!' Simon James Green, author of Noah Can't Even 'Jessie and Brooke are a modern day Thelma and Louise. I raced through this book! The tension, the adventure, the swoon - a brilliant debut!' Abiola Bello, author of Love in Winter Wonderland 'Run Away With Me is a high octane coming-of-age YA romantic thriller. A read-in-one-sitting, turbo charged drive across America that will have your heart pounding and your pulse racing right till the very last page.' A. J. Clack, author of Lie or Die
