Later, when they see each other, it's uncomfortable, to say the least. They don’t speak.Fast forward to the neighborhood pharmacy, a few months later. Abram is on Paxil. Juliette is on Adderall. Abram decides to say hello. Then he decides to invite her to Taco Bell. To both of their surprise, she agrees. And the real love story begins.At turns poignant, funny, and insightful, this compelling novel proves that love can emerge from pain and ultimately triumph.
