Отрывок из книги
This book came from finally taking the plunge in deciding to write my first novel. There were times when I found myself questioning why I had even started, but the final result of holding this book in my hands made me realise that an idea, some time, and a network of supporting people go a long way in making things happen. Without the following people, this book would still be sitting on my computer, complied with notes, and half-finished dialogue. I want to thank Teagan Dadich, who designed the outstanding cover for the novel, I suggest following her on Instagram (@patchypillow) her artworks are truly captivating. I want to thank fellow author Elizbeth Nast for her patience and guidance, my excellent editor Jessica Cox that brought this book to life and Ash from Tablo Publishing, who offered countless advice and enabled me to make this novel a reality. Lastly, to my family, who supported me all the way, thank you for your love, kindness, and enthusiasm that made me believe I could get to that last sentence. My two dogs are also owed a thank you, Toby and Elmo, who always provided support in the form of cuddles when I needed them.
Finally, to anyone reading this, you are owed a thank you for giving me your invaluable time, for that I am beyond grateful- I hope you enjoyed the ride as much as I enjoyed writing about the lives of all the characters in this book. One last note before I go, I hope from reading this that you dare to do something you didn’t yesterday, I hope you take that dance class, start a new language, start that project, paint that portrait. I believe that we can do great things when we take a chance on our own ability to make something beautiful in the world. That same truth lies in you, who knows it might lead to writing a book.

‘Here we are.’ Laura slid off the bike and hugged her cold arms.
Eve couldn’t help but stare at the imposing building, the apartments that overlooked Central Park. ‘You … you live there?’
