Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

One reckless moment. A life hanging in the balance. And a love that must be rebuilt from the wreckage.

Paul Masters is a young man on a collision course with disaster. Apathetic, irresponsible, and prone to self-destruction, he views his own downward spiral as a romantic destiny-until the morning his recklessness finally demands a price. In a desperate rush to class, Paul crashes into the elderly Mrs. Halston, leaving her life hanging by a thread and his own future facing the cold reality of a lengthy jail term.

Sandy, the love of Paul's life, is equally adrift in a sea of party-fueled chaos and immature friendships. To her, Paul's accident is just another "crimp" on her wild, unrestrained lifestyle. As the pressure of a looming trial mounts, their already fragile relationship shatters. Sandy wants out, unable to face the tragedy she has helped create, yet unaware that losing Paul might be the greatest tragedy of all.

But the "old lore" of a life well-lived has a way of intervening when youth falters. In a stunning twist of fate, the very woman Paul nearly killed becomes his unexpected savior. As Mrs. Halston recovers and steps into the courtroom, she offers Paul a second chance at life-and a path toward the maturity he has spent a lifetime avoiding.

Reconciliation is hard-won, but as the walls finally come down, Paul and Sandy discover that their shared wreckage might be the only foundation strong enough to build a profound and lasting love.

"Reckless Youth, Old Reckoning" is the gripping first installment of The Young Awakening Series. It is a moving work of literary romantic fiction that explores the intersection of youthful impulsivity and timeless wisdom. If you enjoy character-driven dramas, stories of profound redemption, and the messy, beautiful journey of finding oneself, you will love Timothy Byron's evocative debut.
