After a decade apart, childhood sweethearts reconnect by chance in New York Times bestselling author Christina Lauren’s touching, romantic novel Love and Other Words…how many words will it take for them to figure out where it all went wrong?
The story of the heart can never be unwritten.
Macy
Sorensen is settling into an ambitious if emotionally tepid routine:
work hard as a new pediatrics resident, plan her wedding to an older,
financially secure man, keep her head down and heart tucked away.
But
when she runs into Elliot Petropoulos—the first and only love of her
life—the careful bubble she’s constructed begins to dissolve. Once upon a
time, Elliot was Macy’s entire world—growing from her gangly bookish
friend into the man who coaxed her heart open again after the loss of
her mother...only to break it on the very night he declared his love for
her.
Told in alternating timelines between Then and Now,
teenage Elliot and Macy grow from friends to much more—spending weekends
and lazy summers together in a house outside of San Francisco devouring
books, sharing favorite words, and talking through their growing pains
and triumphs. As adults, they have become strangers to one another until
their chance reunion. Although their memories are obscured by the agony
of what happened that night so many years ago, Elliot will come to
understand the truth behind Macy’s decade-long silence, and will have to
overcome the past and himself to revive her faith in the possibility of
an all-consuming love.
