But these star-crossed souls have a past filled with secrets that threaten to tear them apart before their love story even begins. Found poetry, grief, and fate collide in this powerful debut.
Ray:Just once Id like my birthday to be about me, and not the day my father died. I want to be Ray Jr., the tall girl from Memphis with the poetry beats and the braids that stay poppin. And when I meet Orion at the skating rink, thats exactly who I am. He pulls my hand, and instead of being defined by my past, he races me toward my future.
Orion:When I dive into the pool, its just me and my heartbeat. Theres no dad, no dead sister, and no distracting noises. But I cant hold my breath forever. And since I met Ray, I dont want to. The closer we get, though, the more I see Im not the only one caught in her wake.
With a lyrical blend of found poetry and poignant prose, this stunning debut captures young Black love and a decades-old family secret that may shatter a romance that feels written in the stars.
