In a Week

In a Week

So much can change in seven days. 

Marcus has always been the star athlete his family expects him to be, but there’s more to him than football. When his teacher encourages him to enter a writing contest, he can’t stop thinking about what it’d be like to let himself do something he truly loves. 

Eli has spent his whole life traveling with the Hutch Family Carnival, dreaming of the day he can stay somewhere long enough to call it home. College scholarship applications are due soon, but his parents will be heartbroken if they learn he wants out of the family business.

When Eli's carnival rolls into Marcus's small town, the two boys collide in a burst of glittering lights, cotton candy, and surprising chemistry. But with a serious storm brewing on the horizon and the carnival pulling up stakes in a week, is this really the time to fall for someone?

IN A WEEK is a queer YA love story about one week that changes everything.
