Knockout!
Emma
Calin

Love at first sight is not something most people actually believe in. Sure, it makes for a fine story, but skeptics say that it takes time for love to grow.

Baratz-Logsted

It’s a great genre! Unfortunately, it seems the Editor-in-Chief of the NYTBR, Frank D’Arcangelo, doesn’t agree with her.
