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
