內容簡介

【夢想路上,我們離彼此走散還有多遠?】

田徑女王Morgan與選美皇后Ruby,在高三那年相識相戀。如今一年過去,儘管分隔兩地,她們依然下定決心守護這段一路走來、得之不易的感情。

如今,以優異田徑成績獲得獎學金的Morgan,在數小時車程外的大學主修公共政策;Ruby則留在家鄉就讀當地社區大學的汽車工程學程,投入自幼便熱愛的汽車維修與機械世界。兩人努力追逐各自的夢想,一邊期待著春假重逢,更數著日子,盼望暑假到來,她們將擁有一整個夏天的時光。

然而,嶄新的校園生活、剛建立的朋友圈,以及若有似無的曖昧互動,讓嫉妒與不安悄然滋長。

遠距離終究在彼此的生活中留下了一道豁口,她們努力在對方面前表現得堅強又體諒,卻始終小心翼翼繞開那些最難開口、卻非談不可的心聲。兩人緊抓著、並一再試圖重現過去的美好。就在兩人期待終於能朝夕相處之際,Morgan得到了競逐夢寐以求的實習名額的機會,Ruby也有機會登上最喜愛的汽車節目…

當人生開始朝著不同方向前進,要讓這段感情繼續下去,靠的不只是回憶,而是兩人必須一起建立全新的未來與相處模式。她們都不願成為阻礙彼此前程的人,卻也不得不面對同一個問題:真正的愛,能否跨越距離,在各自的成長道路上依然並肩前行?還是,終究只能以一句苦澀的再見畫下句點?

第一次離家生活、第一次學會放手、第一次明白原來愛不只是陪伴,延續前作Some Girls Do細膩真摯的筆觸,Jennifer Dugan再次刻劃了甜蜜與苦澀交織的青春樣貌,描繪一段關於遠距離、夢想與自我成長,以及學會以新的方式去愛的旅程。

Ruby and Morgan fell for each other during their senior year of high school, and now, almost a year later, they are determined to keep their spark alive, even while they are apart. Morgan is studying public policy on a track scholarship at a university several hours away, while Ruby stayed in their hometown and is exploring her love of mechanics in the automotive engineering program at the local community college.

Despite their best efforts, the space between them begins to weigh on the girls, with new friendships and flirtatious classmates adding complications. Still, the two are counting down the days to a spring break getaway and the bliss of a whole summer vacation together. But when Morgan discovers she’s a finalist for the
perfect internship and Ruby gets a shot to appear on her favorite automotive TV show, their plans are thrown into question. With both girls unwilling to stand in the way of each other’s future, they wonder: Can their relationship still go the distance even if they’re on separate paths?
