WITHOUT MERIT [UK PAPERBACK PRE-ORDER]

The Voss family is anything but normal. They live in a repurposed church, newly baptized Dollar Voss.

The once cancer-stricken mother lives in the basement, the father is married to the mother’s former nurse, the little half-brother isn’t allowed to do or eat anything fun, and the eldest siblings are irritatingly perfect. Then, there’s Merit.

Merit Voss collects trophies she hasn’t earned and secrets her family forces her to keep. While browsing the local antiques shop for her next trophy, she finds Sagan. His wit and unapologetic idealism disarm and spark renewed life into her - until she discovers that he’s completely unavailable.

Fed up with the lies, Merit decides to shatter the happy family illusion that she’s never been a part of. When her escape plan fails, Merit is forced to deal with the staggering consequences of telling the truth and losing the one boy she loves.
