Book Synopsis
Winner of the 2025 Beach Book Festival (Romance), Maddie + Max is an unforgettable YA romance about first love, heartbreak, and the soul-deep connections that never fade.
When Maddie and Max meet, it feels like old souls coming home. She loves easily, freely, without fear. For him, love is fragile-something to be earned, something he doesn't believe he deserves.
Their secret moments together are tender, electric, and fleeting-until Max's hidden truth tears them apart. Years later, fate throws them back together in an instant of passion, leaving Maddie with a secret of her own... one she can't reveal.
Haunted by dreams of each other, caught between miscommunication and longing, Maddie and Max are forced to face the truth: some love stories are written across decades. But can theirs survive the pain, the distance, and the heartbreak of growing up?
Set against the nostalgic backdrop of the 1990s Midwest-with hockey games, high school milestones, and all the raw intensity of first love-this award-winning novel is perfect for fans of emotional YA romance, second-chance love stories, and bingeable reads that make you laugh, cry, and remember your own first love.Review Quotes
