Hidden Hearts

by Mahama Martin

GH₵30.00

They spent three years hiding it from each other. Everyone else could already tell. Eiton Marsh has a secret he thinks no one's noticed: he's been in love with Brittany Combs since the third grade. Brittany has the same secret about him — and the same terrible poker face. When two people can't stop stealing glances across a high school study hall, it was only ever a matter of time. But falling in love is the easy part. Staying in love when one dream takes you six hours north and the other takes you six hours south? That's the real story. Hidden Hearts follows Eiton and Brittany from their first stolen glances through graduation, long-distance college years, a jealousy scare neither of them saw coming, and a proposal that changes everything — a slow-burn, steamy romance about the kind of love that doesn't need grand gestures, just two people who keep choosing each other, mile after mile, year after year. For anyone who believes the right person is worth the distance. They spent three years hiding it from each other. Everyone else could already tell.
