Route 7:23
One bus ride. One shared playlist. One complicated first love.
Junia Lee has her senior year planned down to the hour-good grades, journal entries, late-night indie films, and zero distractions. But when the quiet, soft-spoken overachiever is forced to sit next to Elias Nelson on the first day of school, her carefully controlled world starts to shift.
Elias is everything Junia's not: laid-back, snack-obsessed, low-key deep, and completely unpredictable. He's been through more than he lets on-and he's not afraid to move fast. Junia? She's never even had a boyfriend. But from one accidental Bluetooth mix-up to late-night texts and emotional honesty, Elias becomes the one person who sees her clearly.
As friendships shift, secrets unravel, and hearts get bruised, Junia and Elias navigate messy feelings, first love, and what it really means to trust someone. And just when it all threatens to fall apart, it's music, forgiveness, and a bus ride that bring them back.
Perfect for fans of To All the Boys I've Loved Before and Everything, Everything, Route 7:23 is a slow-burn romance about love that's real, friendship that's tested, and finding your person-one song at a time.
