Five starred reviews!
From New York Times bestselling author Ashley Woodfolk, Nothing Burns as Bright as You is an impassioned stand-alone tale of queer love, grief, and the complexity of female friendship.
Two girls. One wild and reckless day. Years of tumultuous history unspooling like a thin, fraying string in the hours after they set a fire.
They were best friends. Until they became more. Their affections grew. Until the blurry lines became dangerous.
Over the course of a single day, the depth of their past, the confusion of their present, and the unpredictability of their future is revealed. And the girls will learn that hearts, like flames, aren’t so easily tamed.
It starts with a fire.
How will it end?
- Sapphic Romance: An all-consuming, earth-shattering love story between two girls who can’t stay away from each other, even when they know they should.
- Best Friends to Lovers: They were inseparable. Then one kiss changed everything, blurring the lines between friendship and a dangerous, all-consuming obsession.
- Angsty Romance: Told over the course of a single, reckless day, their tumultuous past unravels in a flood of passion and pain.
- Toxic Relationship: Fire and water, burning and freezing. Their love is a beautiful, destructive force, and when they set a fire, it’s a metaphor for their entire relationship.
- Heartbreak: A poignant exploration of what happens when love isn’t enough, written with the raw, lyrical honesty that only a novel in verse can capture.
