Love and Other Words

Christina Lauren

A dual-timeline contemporary romance about Macy Sorensen, a guarded young doctor engaged to a man she doesn't quite love, who runs into Elliot Petropoulos, the boy who was once her entire world. The story weaves between their deeply bonded teenage friendship-turned-romance and their awkward adult reunion, slowly revealing the painful falling-out that separated them for over a decade. It's an emotional, book-loving love story about grief, trust, and whether two people who once knew each other completely can find their way back together.
