What if they could steal back just a little bit of the space their broken lungs have stolen from them? Would five feet apart really be so dangerous if it stops their hearts from breaking too? But suddenly six feet doesn’t feel like safety. The only way to stay alive is to stay apart.

If he so much as breathes on Stella she could lose her spot on the transplant list. Will’s exactly what Stella needs to stay away from. Soon, he’ll turn eighteen and then he’ll be able to unplug all these machines and actually go see the world, not just its hospitals. He couldn’t care less about his treatments, or a fancy new clinical drug trial. The only thing Will Newman wants to be in control of is getting out of this hospital. At this point, what Stella needs to control most is keeping herself away from anyone or anything that might pass along an infection and jeopardize the possibility of a lung transplant.

Stella Grant likes to be in control-even though her totally out of control lungs have sent her in and out of the hospital most of her life. In this #1 New York Times bestselling novel that’s perfect for fans of John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars, two teens fall in love with just one minor complication-they can’t get within a few feet of each other without risking their lives.Ĭan you love someone you can never touch?
