Two Across
Two Across

Love entwined with crosswords and youthful schemes.

"Two Across" might just resonate with you if you're drawn to the sweetness of youthful love mixed with a dash of intellectual charm. Stanley and Vera's story isn't just any romance; it's a labyrinth of words, wit, and the longing for authenticity in a world set on predefined paths. If you enjoy unraveling the complexities of love through a quirky, yet compelling narrative, you'll find this tapestry of puzzles and emotions hard to put down.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

TWO ACROSS is a funny and poignant debut novel about trust, forgiveness, and the wisdom of listening to your heart. Stanley and Vera, academically precocious but awkward teenagers, form a bond when they tie for first place in the National Spelling Bee. Though their mothers have big plans for them—Stanley will become a senator, Vera a mathematics professor—neither wants to follow these pre-determined paths. So Stanley hatches a plan to marry Vera in a sham wedding for the financial freedom to pursue his one true crossword puzzle construction. In enlisting Vera to marry him, he neglects one she's secretly in love with him, a fact that dooms his plan to disaster. Once he's lost her, Stanley tries to atone for his mistakes and win her back using coded messages in crossword puzzles—but can he find her again before it's too late?
