by Jennifer Dugan (Author)
An unforgettable, achingly honest contemporary queer romance about what happens when you find your first love while you're still discovering who you really are.
"Earnest, wistful, romantic, and real."--Casey McQuiston, New York Times bestselling author of Red, White & Royal Blue "A thoughtful exploration of coming out and safety, a necessary conversation for those within the queer community."--Culturess Can they go the distance together? Morgan, an elite track athlete, is forced to transfer late in her senior year after it turns out being gay is against her private Catholic school's code of conduct. Ruby loves nothing more than tinkering with her baby-blue 1970 Ford Torino, but most weekends she's stuck living out the dreams of her mother, a former beauty queen, by competing in local pageants. Morgan and Ruby are drawn to each other, and when they're together, Ruby begins to envision a future for herself she never thought possible. 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 has never told anyone about the feelings she's denied herself for so long.Author Biography
