Book Tour : Just Human by Kerry Heavens






Synopsis

Meet Liv and Danny...

Liv loves Danny. She knows she loves him more than he loves her, so she lets him go without a fight when his parents make him move back to America. She knows she will never love anyone like she loved him, but she has to move on.

Danny loves Liv. He knows he loves her more than she loves him, because she does nothing to get him to stay, so he goes quietly when his parents leave the UK. He knows he will never love anyone like he loved her, but he has to move on.

Twelve years on, they have made a good job of pretending, they may have almost forgotten. But when they get in touch via Facebook, it seems that it is all still there. 

They quickly find that they are intensely compatible in ways they hadn’t even begun to explore before they were forced apart. 

Can they put aside their fears and give it a go? Or will deep rooted doubts and insecurities tear them apart?

Excerpt

Danny 
Wow, I thought I’d blown it for sure!

Olivia 
Blown what?

Silence…. Seconds feel like hours, and then my screen tells me… 


Danny is typing…

Danny 
I don’t know about you but talking to you has had a huge effect on me. I thought it would be easy, but…I was wrong.

Breathe! I need to think. Oh wait… Danny is typing…

Danny 
That’s why I had to shut myself away to finish this work. Thoughts of you were distracting me! When you didn’t respond I thought you’d lost interest.

I need to process this; it’s all too much…Danny is typing…Shit…more?

Danny 
Say something….

Okay think, think! How do I want this to go? I don’t want to play games. But if I tell him how I’ve been feeling where will it get me? If I tell him, we will just be two people feeling shitty and uncertain on opposite sides of the Atlantic. How will that help? But then it occurs to me, that’s what we already are. I’ve nothing to lose.

Olivia
It’s had a huge effect on me too. 

Tears begin to fall silently down my cheeks. In for a penny, in for a pound…if he never talks to me again, he may as well at least know what he has done to me.

Olivia 
I was OK you know. Then one message from you put me right back to that day. The day you left. I’ve realised I never got over it. 

Danny is typing…

Danny 
I didn’t mean to hurt you. I just…I never got over it either. I had no idea you would feel like this. I thought if I made contact after all this time, we could be friends. 

Olivia 
We have no choice; I just don’t know if I can do it.

How has it come to this so quickly? At least he feels the same. Maybe we can find a way to be friends, over time. Right now, it’s all a bit heavy. There’s no way we can return to friendly banter from this. We’ll just have to cool it and see what happens. I’m just about to say this when I notice…Danny is typing…

Danny
Please don’t give up.

Olivia
Give up on what?

I say, surprised at the sudden anger I feel and I haven’t finished.

Olivia 
There’s nothing to give up on. It doesn’t matter how we feel when we are 5,000 miles apart. I can’t do this right now, I have to work.
