Forever & ever
Hunt, Allanah2026
Book
Talia is sixteen, pregnant and angry. Her family is broken. She's looking after her unwell mother. Her dad's gone. At school she is shunned. And Johnny-the one person she thought she could count on-just walked away. Johnny is Barkindji, smart and confused. He's struggling with the weight of his parents' expectations- he wants to please them, but is the future they've planned for him the one he really wants? He makes a decision he knows he'll regret- leaving Talia behind. Set in a Murray-Darling river town simmering with deep-seated prejudice, Forever & Ever is a gritty, heart-wrenching love story. As secrets long-buried rise to the surface after the death of Talia's estranged uncle, Talia and Johnny are forced to confront not only each other, but a dark and painful past. But some love-no matter how impossible-never lets go.
