Title: Next to Never
Author: Penelope Douglas Genre: New Adult Release Date: January 17th, 2017 New York Times bestseller Penelope Douglas introduces Quinn, younger sister to Jared, Madoc, and Jaxon, in the latest novella in the series that began with Jared and Tate in Bully.... Quinn Caruthers has several problems. Her father, Jason, and her three older brothers, Jared, Madoc, and Jaxon. Under the close watch of the men in her family, Quinn has found it nearly impossible to spread her wings—or even date—without them jumping in to hover. And when a family friend—several years older—from her childhood captures her heart, she knows they’re going to be a problem. Lucas Morrow is a man—experienced, sophisticated, and important. And knowing her brothers, he may as well be forbidden. But Lucas left town years ago and shows no signs of returning. Quinn knows she shouldn’t wait for him anymore. But then a package turns up on her doorstep with no return address and its contents reveal family secrets that threaten to turn Quinn’s world upside down. She’s never asked about the tumultuous path of her parents’ romantic history, but she soon learns their happy marriage had a very rocky and passionate start. As she begins to see things around her with new eyes, Quinn will have to make tough choices about whether she’ll keep waiting…or finally go after what she really wants.
From the outside, Quinn Caruthers has it all. She has the love of her family, the protection of her brothers and the security of her parents. But growing up under the weight of such great expectations is starting to make its mark on her soul.
Day after day, she can’t bring herself to forget about the boy who captured her young heart and then disappeared. He’s just another reminder of all the things that she really wants but can never have. But now inspired by a mysterious book that seems to parallel the painful history of her parents, she decides to finally let go childhood dreams and forge a new future – now matter how much it will hurt. No one knows what I want.
