Synopsis:
Last semester, Romy escaped from an abusive relationship with the guy she’d thought was the man of her dreams. This semester she’s putting herself back together, determined to reclaim her passion for art and for life. When she signs up for a painting class at the local art co-op, the possibility of passion becomes very real -- in the form of her teacher, Caleb. Both mysterious and seriously hot, Caleb bares his soul on his canvases, and Romy’s fascinated by what she sees.
Caleb is just trying to keep his head above water. Caring for his traumatized, unstable sister is getting harder every day, and his paintings are so dark and bleak that no one is buying. Teaching classes at the co-op is no longer enough, and now he’s going to have to sell more than just his art to the wealthy, sex-starved women in his classes. But when Romy comes along, she makes everything more complicated. She sees the truth in his paintings -- a truth no one else has realized, until now.
Romy and Caleb might have a real shot together -- one that could heal them both. But when ghosts from their pasts re-emerge, determined to keep them apart, will they be strong enough to hold on to each other?

From the Author:
I have playlists for all my books, and OBU
is no exception. I put my lists up around pub time, and they
can be found right here if you want to listen. If you’d just like a song list, though:
Only Between Us Playlist:
New Low by
Middle Class Rut – “I have no space/No room to move around/And this box is
getting smaller/I'm trying to get out …” At the beginning of the book, Caleb is
so worn down and feels so trapped, and this song reminds me of that.
Be Calm by
fun. – “I know you feel like you are breaking down/I know that it
gets so hard sometimes/Be calm …” A perfect reminder during those moments of
anxiety, and Romy has many of them.
Seven
Devils by Florence and the Machine – “For what has been done/Cannot
be undone/In the evil's heart/In the evil's soul …” I think this song is kind
of terrifying, and to me it captures the kinds of memories Caleb and his sister
face.
Iridescent
by Linkin Park – “You felt the gravity of tempered grace/Falling into empty
space/No one there to catch you in their arms …” This song is just the soul of
loneliness, and I think it’s one Caleb would listen to as he paints.
Take Me
Back To Where I Was by Shiny Toy Guns – “Please
take what I've had to hide/Start me over from the start/Reshape my heart
tonight …” A very melancholy song, but a beautiful one. Another Caleb painting
song.
Timeless
by The Airborne Toxic Event – “Just help me through this moment/After
everything I told you/How the weight of their loss is like the weight of the
sun …” Caleb has suffered incredible loss, and the moment he lets that out is
pretty cathartic.
Both Hands
by Ani DiFranco – “I am writing graffiti on your body/I am drawing the story of
how hard we tried…” This one haunts me. It’s just a classic song about how you
can love someone and still struggle to be together.
Dig by
Incubus – “Dig me up from under what is covering the better part of me
…” A lot of this book is about exactly this.
Guilty As
Charged by Tegan and Sara – “And so I go back home to be by myself/I
try everything I've ever read/Desperate, I still can't get you out of my head
…” How Romy feels about Caleb, in a nutshell.
Soul Meets
Body by Death Cab for Cutie – “Cause you’re the only song I want to hear/A
melody softly soaring through my atmosphere …” There’s something amazing about
finding peace and sanctuary in another person, and it’s how Caleb feels about
Romy.
