Always & Eternal

WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO KILL FOR LOVE?
 

'Nobody ever said my life was a bed of roses. Because most of the time it was a piece of shit. Until Eloise, that is. Eloise my love, my Elf, my better self. She swims through the shadows, her sweet face looking down on me. I pick up the blade and turn the slither in my hand; I know I love Eloise more than ever. I love her more than the life-giving blood coursing through my veins. I love her surer than the silvery sparkles of night that will eventually give way to the orange globe of day bursting into the eastern sky. Eloise is my blood, my life, my sun and moon. She is my everything. And there is a place for us. Somewhere. We simply haven't found it yet.'

Aidan hasn't had it easy.  Born into a notorious family, he has the weight of the world on his shoulders, a weight that's crushing him so far down most think it's impossible for him to climb out of the hole and make something of his life. But Aidan has dreams. Big dreams. He has a heart that's true and a loyalty that won't be quashed. And from the moment he meets Eloise they become an inseparable pair. What begins as a friendship founded on loneliness quickly turns to a love so intense they can't bear to be parted. A relationship that nobody or nothing can tear apart~ not her family or his dreams of stardom.

Eloise is the product of money and privilege. Beautiful and talented, she prays for a mother who isn't emotionally unavailable and a father who cares about more than how well she can dance or if she's top of her class. She dreams of a day when somebody will love her for who she is. Completely. Totally. Unconditionally. Maybe fulfilling her life-long ambition to be the best ballerina in Australia will make it happen? She won't know until she leaves her shit life behind and becomes someone new. A girl who doesn't care.

But Aidan and Eloise's paths are set for a different course than the one they plan. And despite the opposition and their shattered dreams, the young lovers find a way to have the love they crave. And when Eloise causes everything to come to a head, they realise the peace they longed for was right in front of them all along. They can have each other if they're willing to stand up and do what it takes.

With this bold and emotionally charged novel, Lindy Dale delivers a heart-wrenching story that breaks exciting new ground for her as a writer. Combining a captivating romance with situations that face many young people today, Always & Eternal is an unforgettable tale of love that comes at the ultimate price tag.
