Vanessa, a straight-A student with big plans, had her dreams derailed by another's reckless choices. Now, she's learned not to believe in empty promises, but Sal's irresistible charm might just change her mind.

This captivating romance novel offers a unique perspective, a powerful redemption arc, and a love story that will leave readers enthralled. "Thirsty" is a must-read for fans of engaging, character-driven narratives.
