One Last Stop
âBut, you know, that feeling? When you wake up in the morning and you have somebody to think about? Somewhere for hope to go? It's good. Even when it's bad, it's good.â
For cynical twenty-three-year-old August, moving to New York City is supposed to prove her right: that things like magic and cinematic love stories donât exist, and the only smart way to go through life is alone. She canât imagine how waiting tables at a 24-hour pancake diner and moving in with too many weird roommates could possibly change that. And thereâs certainly no chance of her subway commute being anything more than a daily trudge through boredom and electrical failures.
But then, thereâs this gorgeous girl on the train.
Jane. Dazzling, charming, mysterious, impossible Jane. Jane with her rough edges and swoopy hair and soft smile, showing up in a leather jacket to save Augustâs day when she needed it most. Augustâs subway crush becomes the best part of her day, but pretty soon, she discovers thereâs one big problem: Jane doesnât just look like an old school punk rocker. Sheâs literally displaced in time from the 1970s, and August is going to have to use everything she tried to leave in her own past to help her. Maybe itâs time to start believing in some things, after all. Product Info
