Jason Reynolds, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Long Way Down. **'Lexie and Chester's love story is unlike anything you've ever read ... a stunning poetic achievement.' Kathleen Glasgow, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Girl in Pieces. 'A lyrical, genre-bending exploration of devotion and grief, using a mix of poetry and prose to propel a fairytale inspired romance.' School Library Journal. Once, in a small New England town known for its hot springs, something terrible happened. Something that should have been a warning to stay away from the pools, if the stories were to be believed. But no one is afraid of the water anymore - even if they should be. When new girl Lexie meets golden boy Chester, their chemistry is undeniable. She's running from a glittering life she won't speak about. He's hiding secrets of his own. Their connection feels bigger than both of them, despite their damage. One frigid winter morning in that small New England town, five people go for a swim in the pools. Five people, including Chester. What happens there sends shock waves through the town-and changes life as Lexie knows it forever. A beautiful, page-turning tale written in compelling verse and short chapters that will linger in the mind and provoke intense conversation. A compelling and memorable love story.
