The Ballad of Darcy and Russell

By Morgan Matson

Family stories, Romance, Friendship stories

Synthetic audio, Automated braille

Summary

From New York Times bestselling author Morgan Matson comes a &“strongly plotted romantic comedy with plenty of…pitch-perfect drama to dig into&” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) about love, fate…and that one night that can change everything.Darcy believes in love at first… sight. Even though it&’s never happened to her, she&’s spent her whole life waiting for that perfect, magical moment. But right now, her life is anything but perfect. In the aftermath of a music festival, she&’s stranded at a bus station until morning—the day before she leaves for college. Her phone is dead, she has no cash, and she&’s convinced nothing good can come of this night…but then she meets Russell. Russell. Cute and nice, funny and kind. She knows this is the moment—and the guy—she&’s been waiting for. And they have until sunrise to walk and talk and connect. Over the course of this one fateful night—filled with football field picnics, night swimming, and escape-artist dogs—Darcy and Russell&’s lives will change forever. They&’ll discover things they never imagined about each other…and about themselves. But can you really know someone after only a handful of hours? Is it possible to fall in love in just one day? And is it worth saying hello…when you know you&’re destined for a goodbye?
