"I'd never loved anyone as much as I loved Wynter, and somehow, I was expected to just let her go." Fifteen-year-old Seth Rosenberg has just entered his freshman year of high school--isolated, friendless, and eager to have the next three years pass him by as swiftly as possible. But when Wynter Meadows, the widely popular, not to mention Seth's biggest crush, reveals that she is in the midst of a battle against leukemia, his entire world is flipped upside down. Seeing that Seth is the only student to know of Wynter's condition, the two of them end up forming an unlikely yet secret friendship. During which, Seth learns that Wynter has chosen not to treat her disease and, consequentially, has been given less than a year to live. With the monumentally important task of changing Wynter's mind weighing heavily on him, Seth must deal with the intense roller-coaster ride that accompanies being friends with Wynter Meadows while also being painfully aware of the unfortunate reality that awaits if he is to fail his mission.

By the award-winning author of Team of Rivals and The Bully Pulpit, Wait Till Next Year is Doris Kearns Goodwin’s touching memoir of growing up in love with her family and baseball. Set in the suburbs of New York in the 1950s, Wait Till Next Year re-creates the postwar era, when the corner store was a place to share stories and neighborhoods were equally divided between Dodger, Giant, and Yankee fans. We meet the people who most influenced Goodwin’s early life: her mother, who taught her the joy of books but whose debilitating illness left her housebound: and her father, who taught her the joy of baseball and to root for the Dodgers of Jackie Robinson, Roy Campanella, Pee Wee Reese, Duke Snider, and Gil Hodges. Most important, Goodwin describes with eloquence how the Dodgers’ leaving Brooklyn in 1957, and the death of her mother soon after, marked both the end of an era and, for her, the end of childhood.

No one would say that our story is pretty... But we were in love before we hated each other. And we were friends long before that. Growing up, I saw Jace Zielinski every day. He lived next door. I cheered him on at football games. I gave him advice on girls. He was my brother's best friend and the three of us were inseparable. I didn't realize I'd already fallen for Jace until the hot summer night when we kissed for the first time. Our magical season felt like destiny. And then came the disaster that tore us all to shreds. I lost Jace. I lost my brother. In many ways I lost myself. Ten years later, Jace is untouchable in a world of pro athlete fame and glory. I never wanted to see him again and I'd definitely never pick him to be my hero. Not even when I'm broke and terrified and running for my life. But it seems I have no choice. Somehow we're both back in the same place where we started. I have nowhere else to go and Jace refuses to leave. We're not the same as we were. We're not those teenagers who fell in love years ago. That doesn't mean we'll keep our hands to ourselves now. If anything, I want Jace more than ever. And we are foolish enough to repeat our own turbulent history. Both the parts that felt crazy good. And the parts that hurt the most... TILL IT HURTS is a complete stand alone at 110,000 words. Expect hate banter, plot twists, scorching chemistry and all the feels of a small town second chance romance.
