    Summary

    Trinity Santos has always been good at taking a hit.

    Dennis Whitaker just never expected her to take one for him.

    ----------------------------------------------

    In which accidents happen, relationships are put to the test, and no one is having a good time (at least at first).

    Summary

    Now that Ellie’s alone, she just sits on her bed and looks at her book. She can’t call it reading anymore – by now she has read the thing front to back so many times that she could quote some paragraphs word for word.

    That’s why it’s weird that it took her so long to notice the message written on the front page.

    There, nestled just below the title, there’s one line of writing addressed to her. It doesn’t mention any names, but it is for her. It can’t be otherwise.
    It’s not Tommy’s handwriting, nor Maria's, nor Riley's.

    But it’s somebody’s. Somebody who knew she’d like to read about Moon landing, spaceships, and astronauts. Somebody who cared enough to take this book, fix the hardcover with some scotch tape, and give it to her. Somebody who wrote those words on the front page knowing that they would make her smile.

    Somebody who loved her.

    It’s late spring 2024 when Ellie wakes up in Jackson. She has a backpack full of books, a burn on her arm, and no memory of how she went from Boston QZ to Wyoming.

    Summary

    In fall of 2009 Rosa showed up at Jake's apartment unannounced to propose marriage. Which was weird for a number of reasons, primarily because Jake had no idea she even knew where he lived.

    "No seriously," he said, once he stopped laughing. "Why're you here."

    She looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "One thousand push-ups."

    "Cool," Jake said. "Let me get my coat."

    In which Jake texts Amy mostly stupid, occasionally funny, sometimes sweet, and never sober things in the middle of the night (and she always ends up smiling).
