SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!
So thrilled to be a part of my lovely friend's cover reveal. Yes, I'm a bit (fashionably) late but that's so not important when the cover and book is THIS GOOD. Just pre-order this book, okay. Nuff said. ![]() Welcome to the Cover Reveal for Within and Without by Deborah Maroulis! Be on the lookout for this new title from Lakewater Press. What do you think of the cover? ![]()
Within and Without by Deborah Maroulis Available for pre-order: “Unflinching, authentic, and the perfect mixture of bold and sweet, WITHIN AND WITHOUT is a story readers will lose themselves in more than once. A debut both heartwarming and heartbreaking from an exciting new voice in YA literature.” —Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of Firsts and Last Girl Lied To “A moving portrait of first love, friendship, and the pressures we put upon ourselves daily. Maroulis tackles the delicate subject of eating disorders with a realistic pen, all while maintaining a humorous and hopeful tone. WITHIN AND WITHOUT will stay with you long after you turn the last page.” —Samantha Joyce, author of Flirting with Fame “A heartfelt and moving story of friendship, first love, and finding yourself. Maroulis isn’t afraid to tackle tough topics to show that finding love requires learning to love yourself.” —Kelly deVos, author of Fat Girl on a Plane ![]() The boy I’ve secretly loved for the last three years is parking in Granny’s driveway. The tires of his blue 4x4 roll to a stop, and warbled song lyrics promising a good time boom over the vineyards. Dear fashion gods, now would be the perfect time to send me something flowy and flattering. Nothing. I sink into the porch swing as my heart matches the thump of the beat echoing against the wrap-around porch. I suck in my gut and lift my heels so my legs won’t smoosh against the bench—a trick I learned to instantly look a size smaller. My hands smooth over my jeans in the hopes the fashion gods might reconsider. Again, no such luck. The driver’s door swings open, and Jay leaps to the ground, sauntering up the graveled driveway to the porch. To me. Now all that’s separating us is a white picket fence and sixteen years of my inability to be normal in a social setting. I’ll take Dying Alone for $200, Alex. He’s abandoned his usual work boots and flannel for a tank top and canvas slip-ons. He’s obviously not supposed to be working—so what’s he here for? Probably been in town with his friends doing friend-ish things. As he works the gate latch, the muscles under his fair skin flex, sending the hundred-degree temperature up another ten. He’s easily the most attractive being on the planet I wish I had the nerve to talk to. I did try once. But we don’t discuss The Dark Days. ![]() ![]()
