Dylan Pierce has everything figured out-good friends, a loving family, a promising future in math, and a spot on Baybrook High's elite Math League team. Life in his Chicago suburb is predictable, just the way he likes it. Ethan Anderson is Baybrook's star baseball player, but when his failing math grade threatens to bench him for his senior season-and ruin his shot at a college scholarship-he's desperate for help. When Dylan is assigned as Ethan's tutor, neither is thrilled about the arrangement. But as equations turn into late-night study sessions and reluctant conversations, they realize they have more in common than they thought. And maybe, just maybe, they can help each other in ways beyond the classroom.

Charlie Holloway has great friends, good grades, a steady part-time job he actually likes, and athletic ability that makes him a star in two sports, but recently it's all felt rather hollow. However, when childhood friend Theo Broussard comes back into his life, Charlie is shaken out of a years-long daze that has left him coasting through his teenage years. Theo just happening to be the star player for his school's biggest rival and his first crush only complicates matters further. When things get difficult, Charlie finds himself forced to choose between his current life following the path of least resistance or a harder but possibly more fulfilling one. "Only to feel this fully, this entire, the way snow touched bare skin & is suddenly, no longer snow" -Ocean Vuong, "Devotion" from Night Sky with Exit Wounds [Re-edited 4/18/20]
