by Evie Blum (Author)
Gabby Feinman-artist, software engineer, overachiever extraordinaire-has studied hard, worked harder, and played just enough so she'll have no regrets when she finds and marries her Nice Jewish Boy. The profile? Smart, sexy, and lovable, the standard first set by her brother's best friend and her teenage crush, Ben Adler.
Ben has always been just out of Gabby's reach-spinning into her orbit, lighting up her heart, then spinning right back out again. Despite the time and distance, Ben's long-held attraction to Gabby hasn't faded over the years. Unfortunately, his chosen path-a PhD in biology and proving himself to his father-means a relationship with Gabby just isn't meant to be, especially since he doesn't believe in the staying power of love.
But one steamy New York summer, years of attraction ignite. When Ben is forced to make a life-changing decision, though, they discover that love is a fire that can burn you like no other, and sometimes, you have to lose everything to understand what you just can't live without.
Light It Up is a dual POV Jewish story about love, growing as a person, facing your fears, and learning to trust yourself and others. Finding true love can be a winding path, with doubts and challenges along the way, but sometimes . . . one match is all you need.
