Summary:
After ten years apart, childhood sweethearts reconnect by chance in New York Situations bestselling author Christina Lauren’s touching, romantic novel Love and Other Words…how many phrases will it take to allow them to figure out where everything went wrong?
The story from the heart can’t ever be unwritten.
Macy Sorensen is settling into an ambitious if emotionally tepid program: work hard as a fresh pediatrics resident, plan her wedding to a mature, financially secure man, keep her head down and heart tucked about Love and Other Words away.
However when she runs into Elliot Petropoulos-the first in support of love of her life-the careful bubble she’s constructed starts to dissolve. Once upon a time, Elliot was Macy’s entire world-growing from her gangly bookish friend in to the guy who coaxed her heart open again after the lack of her mother…only to break it in the very evening he declared his love on her behalf.
Informed in alternating timelines between In that case and today, teenage Elliot and Macy grow from friends to very much more-spending weekends and sluggish summers together in a house outside of San Francisco devouring books, sharing favorite words and phrases, and speaking through their growing pains and triumphs. As adults, they have become strangers one to the other until their possibility reunion. Although their memories are obscured by the agony of what happened that night therefore many years back, Elliot will come to understand the reality behind Macy’s decade-long silence, and will have to overcome the past and himself to revive her beliefs in the chance of the all-consuming love.
