"Utterly romantic." --Jenny Han, NYT bestselling author of To All
the Boys I've Loved Before
Two teens are thrown together on a cross-country train trip that will
teach them about love, each other, and the futures they can build for
themselves in this meet-cute romance from the bestselling author of
Windfall and The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight.
It's the perfect idea for a romantic week together: traveling across
America by train.
But then Hugo's girlfriend dumps him. Her parting gift: the tickets for
their long-planned last-hurrah-before-college trip. Only, it's been
booked under her name. Nontransferable, no exceptions.
Mae is still reeling from being rejected from USC's film school. When
she stumbles across Hugo's ad for a replacement Margaret Campbell (her
full name!), she's certain it's exactly the adventure she needs to shake
off her disappointment and jump-start her next film.
A cross-country train trip with a complete stranger might not seem like
the best idea. But to Mae and Hugo, both eager to escape their regular
lives, it makes perfect sense. What starts as a convenient arrangement
soon turns into something more. But when life outside the train catches
up to them, can they find a way to keep their feelings for each other
from getting derailed?
"One of the loveliest, most touching romances of 2019 thus far that
gets at the nature of something deeply uried in all of our hearts."
