Layla Warren first introduced us to Trip Wilmington in REMEMBER WHEN...
Now read his side of the story!
Trip Wiley wasn't always a Hollywood movie star.
In fact, he wasn't always Trip Wiley.
Back in 1990, he was better known as Trip Wilmington, the new kid in town.
New place, new school... same old story.
No big deal. It’s not like this is the first time he’s been forced to start over.
But seventeen years of city living hasn’t prepared him for life in the suburbs...
or for Layla Warren.
Layla is smart, funny, beautiful... the kind of girl every guy dreams about.
Trip should know.
He’s been falling for her since the first minute he saw her.
And his life hasn’t been the same since.
~
Prepare to travel back to your teen years... That time in your life before the real world kicked in, that limbo between adolescence and adulthood, that trial of hanging onto the past while figuring out where the future will lie.
With heart-shredding romance, steamy love scenes, and hilarious 80s references, readers of all ages will find themselves falling in love with TRIP all over again.
THE REMEMBER TRILOGY
EXCERPT
Chapter 1
COME SEE THE PARADISE
New Jersey.
Jesus Christ, it was the last place in the world I thought I’d end up.
I’d just driven through downtown Norman, taking notice of the tree-lined streets and rows of mom-and-pop stores. The place was straight out of Anytown, USA. A shrine to suburbia. A Norman Rockwell painting come to life.
In other words, boring as shit.
I mean, I wasn’t a town kinda guy. I was a city kid. New York? Sure, sign me up. But Jersey? What the hell was waiting for me here? Rumor had it the entire state smelled.
Well, to be fair, I hadn’t yet noticed any overly offensive stink since crossing the border, and thankfully, my new town didn’t reek of anything other than middle class and fresh-cut grass. I guessed that was one perk I could log in the “pro” column.
I wished I had more time to check out New York but there was too much stuff to do at the new house. Plus, school had already started. A week ago. I’d been agitated the whole twelve-hour drive over, but I was sure my anger would be nothing compared to my father’s. Man, was he gonna be pissed. I wasn’t looking forward to the inevitable confrontation regarding my late arrival. I’d avoided talking to him the past two weeks and simply timed the phone calls to my mother when I knew he wouldn’t be home.
