Gabriella Mason is damaged.

Teller Reddy is wrecked.

Misery loves company, and that’s exactly what Ella gets the afternoon her path crosses with Teller’s: the misunderstood premed student who instantly becomes her lifeline when she moves to Los Angeles, an attempt at escaping her heartbreaking past.

In the beginning, Lonely and Defensive complete each other. But in the end, their relationship is like broken glass—cutthroat and jagged.

Calling it off before they kill each other, Ella and Teller decide to “just be friends” despite the intensity that binds them together. It’s a delicate foundation rocked by tragedy, effectively destroying the illusion they’ve so carefully built.

Unable to deny what’s between them any longer, this is what happens when wrecked and damaged collide and close is still not close enough.

REVIEW

Great writing, addictive story! This was my first read by Mary Elizabeth and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Closer was angsty, raw, intense, and let's not forget emotional! The chaos that is Teller and Ella's relationship will make you crazy at times. You'll experience all the highs and lows just as they do. You’ll smile, yell, and give your head a shake. Sometimes I felt like there really was no solid reason for these two to be apart. I didn't get Ella's hesitation at all, and sometimes she irked me a little more than Teller. They were crazy, stupid in love, and just when you thought they were finally on the same wavelength...boom, more conflict arose! Conflict that probably could have been avoided if these two were less volatile and quick to jump to conclusions. They were/are immature, and still have a lot of growing to do. This was an impressive start to the Closer series, I look forward to finding out what comes next for these characters.
