About this novel

In this YA contemporary queer romance from the author of Hot Dog Girl, an openly gay track star falls for a closeted, bisexual teen beauty queen with a penchant for fixing up old cars.Morgan, an elite track athlete, is forced to transfer high schools late in her senior year after it turns out being queer is against her private Catholic school's code of conduct. There, she meets Ruby, who has two hobbies: tinkering with her baby blue 1970 Ford Torino and competing in local beauty pageants, the latter to live out the dreams of her overbearing mother. The two are drawn to each other and can't deny their growing feelings. But while Morgan—out and proud, and determined to have a fresh start—doesn't want to have to keep their budding relationship a secret, Ruby isn't ready to come out yet. With each girl on a different path toward living her truth, can they go the distance together?

La historia del corazón nunca se puede dejar de escribir. Macy Sorensen se está adaptando a una rutina ambiciosa aunque emocionalmente tibia: trabajar duro como nueva residente de pediatría, planificar su boda con un hombre mayor y económicamente seguro, mantener la cabeza gacha y el corazón escondido. Pero cuando se encuentra con Elliot Petropoulos, el primer y único amor de su vida, la cuidadosa burbuja que ha construido comienza a disolverse. Érase una vez, Elliot era el mundo entero de Macy, pasando de ser su desgarbado amigo estudioso a ser el hombre que hizo que su corazón se abriera de nuevo después de la pérdida de su madre... solo para romperlo la misma noche en que declaró su amor. Contados en líneas de tiempo alternas entre el pasado y el presente, los adolescentes Elliot y Macy pasan de ser amigos a mucho más: pasan los fines de semana y veranos perezosos juntos en una casa en las afueras de San Francisco devorando libros, compartiendo sus palabras favoritas y hablando sobre sus dolores de crecimiento y sus triunfos. De adultos, se han vuelto extraños el uno para el otro hasta su oportunidad de reunirse. Aunque sus recuerdos están oscurecidos por la agonía de lo que sucedió esa noche hace tantos años, Elliot llegará a comprender la verdad detrás del silencio de una década de Macy, y tendrá que superar el pasado y a sí mismo para revivir su fe en la posibilidad de un futuro amor que todo lo consume.

Ali Hazelwood

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis comes a new steamy, STEMinist novella… A scientist should never cohabitate with her annoyingly hot nemesis—it leads to combustion. Mara, Sadie, and Hannah are friends first, scientists always. Though their fields of study might take them to different corners of the world, they can all agree on this universal truth: when it comes to love and science, opposites attract and rivals make you burn…   As an environmental engineer, Mara knows all about the delicate nature of ecosystems. They require balance. And leaving the thermostat alone. And not stealing someone else’s food. And other rules Liam, her detestable big-oil lawyer of a roommate, knows nothing about. Okay, sure, technically she’s the interloper. Liam was already entrenched in his aunt’s house like some glowering grumpy giant when Mara moved in, with his big muscles...
