Summary
Samira, Trinity, Emma, and Victoria have been best friends since the fourth grade, and though their bond has been unbreakable, the summer before their senior year of college brings about changes that make the girls worry about what their futures- together and apart- will hold. Samira’s mom is getting remarried, and selling her childhood home against her wishes. Trinity and Victoria haven’t recovered from a devastating fight no one knows the details of, and are determined to spend the summer as far apart as possible. And with unconfirmed rumors of an engagement swirling, Emma’s boyfriend is taking her, her grandma, and her three brothers to visit Guadeloupe to meet her deceased mom’s family for the first time. Worried about growing apart from the friends she’s held dear for most of her life, Emma proposes the girls continue their tradition of mailing each other letters and their trusted, shared denim jacket throughout the summer. Though skeptical the jacket has any magic left to share, the girls agree to one last summer of snail mail.

Summary
“Francesca doesn’t want to speak,” Eloise had said with all the exasperation a six year old can muster.
“Doesn’t want to?”
“Nope,” Eloise scooped another spoonful of pees.
“But she can?” Anthony asked looking at Fran, who peered up at him with big, wide eyes.
She nodded once.
“You do not wish to speak,” Anthony clarified. “But you are okay?”
She nodded once again.
“Ah,” Anthony pondered.

Summary
It begins, as most things do, rather innocuously. With a phone call.
A phone call that shocks Francesca from her deep sleep, blinking confused and discombobulated in the dark.
She registers her phone ringing on her nightstand with a jolt, and crawls out of the warm nest of blankets, flinging an arm over and answering without even glancing at the caller ID. Her voice is hoarse, brimming over with sleep as she clears her throat and mutters, “Hello?”
“Frannie,” Michaela breathes on the other end.
All of a sudden Francesca’s wide awake.
Or: Michaela’s apartment floods. She moves in with Francesca until it gets fixed. And that should’ve been fine, right? But Francesca’s used to her simple, quiet routine -– bookstore job, piano on the weekends -– and, well, there’s nothing less routine, less controllable, than Michaela. Except maybe the feelings Michaela stirs up within her.

Michaela Stirling wakes up in 2026 with no explanation, in a London flat she shares with Francesca Bridgerton. Their flat. Their life. And a mug in the cupboard that says more than she knows how to.
She spends two months learning to survive a century she doesn't understand, alone, until a hospital calls to say that Francesca needs to be picked up.
Now they must navigate a world that has already decided they belong together, while one of them is only beginning to understand what that might mean.Bookmarked by swarmofsalamanders
