Beautiful Ruin

When Reid Callahan moves in next door the week before senior year, Cassie Moore finally has a reason to come down from the rooftop where she has spent three years hiding from everything that feels too big to say out loud. Over one Connecticut autumn and winter, a shared AP Literature class and an ongoing ritual of honest, unedited conversation on that same roof turn into a slow-burning, deeply felt romance that neither of them expected to need this badly. As college acceptance letters arrive and the distance between New York and Boston looms, Cassie and Reid must decide whether the truest, most unguarded versions of themselves can survive becoming two people in two different cities.
