About Past Present Future

Rowan Roth and Neil McNair fell for each other in just twenty-four hours. When the longtime rivals confessed their feelings on the last day of senior year, they knew they would only have a couple of months together before leaving for college. Now summer is over, and they are determined to make their relationship work as they begin school in different states. In Boston, Rowan is eager to be among other aspiring novelists and learn from a creative writing professor she adores, but she is not sure why she suddenly cannot seem to find her voice. In New York, Neil embraces the chaos of the city and clicks with a new friend group more easily than he anticipated. But when his past refuses to leave him alone, he does not know how to handle his rapidly changing mental health or how to talk about it with the girl he loves. Over a year of late-night phone calls, weekend visits, and East Coast adventures, Rowan and Neil fall for each other again and again as they grapple with the uncertainty of their new lives.
