Summary
Rue Bennett has a system for most things.
The alarm at six forty-seven. The side entrance at BluTech that bypasses the loud lobby. The cove path that ends at the spot with two walls of stone and the water in front of her. The journal where she writes what she can’t say out loud.
She has not been able to build a system for this.
At twenty-one, she has never kissed anyone. She knows why. The understanding has not solved the problem. So she does what she always does — researches, makes a plan, finds the most controlled version of the thing she needs.
The woman who arrives is not what she expected.
She goes by Luxé. She sits at the far edge of the bed. She asks what she should know before she assumes anything. When Rue tells her, she doesn’t produce the face. She just says: it makes sense.
And then she asks about the arctic terns.
The Distance and the Return is a story about learning what closeness feels like when your nervous system has never had the chance — told in the specific language of two people who both needed somewhere no one knew their name.

Summary
I shift, not really wanting the day to end, “Want to come up?” I try. “I’ll find a horror movie that will actually make you jump.”
Maddy laughs. “You don’t need to put on scary movies to get me close to you, Rue—”
I’m lost for words. My face heats up, “That’s not—
“—I’m a cuddler as you can tell.” She finishes.
Oh. I think. So, she knows we were basically tangled into each other this morning. I chew on my bottom lip, my mind about to go into over drive.
“You’re doing that thing.” She tells me.
“Yeah sorry.” I give an awkward laugh. “You cuddle with all your friends, I’m guessing…”
Maddy phones begin to blow up, and she looks at it and roll her eyes while saying, “No. I don’t like sharing beds during sleepovers.” My eyes widen. “I have to go, unfortunately.” She leans over and gives me a hug, “Good night, Rue.”
I pull the pillow Maddy was using and fall into a dream that includes hues of purple and whispers of ocean wave promises.

Rue is Cali-sober, searching for something worth living for in the city of angels. The last thing she expects is running into Maddy Perez at Lexi promotion party.

Summary
Five years after high school, Rue Bennett has somehow managed to stay alive.
Working off a debt to Laurie means long nights, dangerous jobs, and constantly looking over her shoulder. Most of the people she once loved are gone some by choice, some forever.
The only thing Rue can count on is that whenever she shows up at Maddy Perez’s apartment in the middle of the night, the door always opens.
At first, that’s all it is.
Then it isn’t.

Summary
In a world where Rue Bennett never fell into addiction, she and her ride-or-die Fezco have built a lucrative secret life of high-end robberies and premium weed deals. At twenty, Rue is confident, tattooed, and unapologetically a player — until Maddy Perez walks into her world.
Maddy, still trapped in her toxic relationship with Nate, expects nothing more than good weed from the mysterious dealers. Instead, she meets Rue — nonchalant, muscular, and dangerously magnetic. What starts as subtle flirting and late-night deliveries slowly ignites into a charged slow-burn that threatens to upend both their lives. As stolen art, late-night tension, and growing feelings collide, Maddy must choose between the life she knows and the thrilling danger of wanting Rue.Bookmarked by Myfunfac

Summary
“i was scared,” she swallowed, was she drunk?
“are you scared now?” maddy was wearing a different perfume, muskier and pomegranate that blended with her own cologne nicely.
rue looked at her, maddy watched her, “no,”
[or, in the dead of night, rue and maddy would slip out from under the guise of everyone and everything else and find each other.]
