Not Yours To Hold Blurb

Not Yours To Hold by Brittany Carter is a gripping and emotional romance novel about love, survival, and the complexities of forbidden desire.

JANE REYNOLDS has a stable, predictable relationship with her boyfriend, LUCAS JOHNS. While things between them are comfortable, Jane feels something is missing—a spark, a passion she can’t quite put her finger on. That missing piece unexpectedly appears in the form of REMY HANES, Lucas’ enigmatic and intense best friend. Remy awakens feelings in Jane that she didn’t know existed, making her feel more alive than she’s ever been. What was supposed to be an innocent friendship quickly turns into something dangerous, with one fateful, alcohol-fueled night pushing them past the boundaries of restraint.

Their lives take an even darker turn when their Spanish class embarks on an exciting trip to Spain. What begins as a thrilling adventure soon spirals into a nightmare as their plane crashes, leaving only a handful of survivors stranded in the wild, isolated mountains. With limited food and resources, the survivors are pushed to their physical and emotional limits. Amidst the wreckage and chaos, Jane and Remy are forced to confront their growing connection, all while grappling with the devastating losses they’ve suffered. Lucas is gone, and with his absence comes an overwhelming wave of guilt and longing that threatens to consume them both.

In the brutal days and perilous nights that follow, Jane and Remy must depend on each other to survive. But their newfound closeness comes with a price. As they fight to stay alive in the unforgiving wilderness, the intense chemistry between them grows impossible to ignore. What started as a single moment of weakness becomes a bond that neither of them can break, no matter how hard they try. Torn between loyalty to the dead and the undeniable love that has blossomed between them, Jane and Remy are left questioning whether their feelings are born out of desperation or something real and unshakable.

Not Yours To Hold is a heart-wrenching story of love found in the most unexpected of places, testing the limits of morality, survival, and what it truly means to follow your heart. As Jane and Remy navigate the wreckage of their lives, they must decide whether love can rise from the ashes of tragedy or if the weight of their guilt will destroy them both before they have the chance to claim it.
