About this ebook
In the bustling streets of Brooklyn, two lives, so different yet destined to intertwine, find themselves caught in an unforgettable tale of love and risk.
“One of the most poignant and star-crossed love stories since The Fault in Our Stars.”—Entertainment Weekly
“Electrifying . . . surprisingly seductive. LaMarche expertly conjures up what high-stakes infatuation feels like.”—The New York Times Book Review
Fate brought them together. Will life tear them apart?
Devorah is a consummate good girl who has never challenged the ways of her strict Hasidic upbringing. Jaxon is a fun-loving, book-smart nerd who has never been comfortable around girls (unless you count his four younger sisters). They’ve spent their entire lives in Brooklyn, on opposite sides of the same street. Their paths never crossed . . . until one day, they did.
When a hurricane strikes the Northeast, the pair becomes stranded in an elevator together, where fate leaves them no choice but to make an otherwise risky connection. Though their relationship is strictly forbidden, Devorah and Jaxon arrange secret meetings and risk everything to be together. But how far can they go? Just how much are they willing to give up?
