This sequel to Safer Outside can be read out of order or as a standalone.
Kim has spent her life living up to the expectations of her family and friends. She's supposed to be pretty and polite and carry the Curtner name as a badge of honor.
She's able to keep up the appearances pretty well...until Austin comes along. He sees right through her shell to the vulnerable and neglected young woman inside. He doesn't cater to her the way most guys do. He's willing to be patient to learn who she really is, but her fear of opening up may not ever let that happen.
For readers 16+
