Soon to be a major motion picture starring Damian Hardung (Maxton Hall) and Sara Waisglass (Ginny & Georgia)!

“Swoony and Sad . . . The well-written depictions of the sensations of grief will resonate with many readers. Romance lovers will swoon over Nick’s and Fiona’s growing feelings as their slow-burn relationship deepens.”
—Kirkus Reviews

Read People Magazine’s Exclusive announcement about the upcoming movie.

Perfect for fans of Nicola Yoon’s The Sun is Also a Star and John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars, Into the Deep Blue is Fiona and Nick’s achingly moving, wry, and hopeful tale about falling apart and coming together told from two unforgettable points of view,

Nick and Fiona were meant to be friends—best friends—and they wouldn’t change that for the world. At least, that’s what they tell themselves. Because they can’t be an us. Nick doesn’t believe in happy endings ever since they both lost their moms unexpectedly senior year. And Fiona often wonders if all they have in common is their numb hearts. Still, they’re content to share everything else with each other. Honestly. Everything but sparks.

But when Fiona accidentally lets her guard down more than she intended to with Nick, it threatens to ruin their fragile balancing act. Luckily, Nick isn’t about to let a little misunderstanding get in the way of the weekend trip they’ve been planning for months. Fiona is just hoping for some closure on the first anniversary of her mom’s death—except grief isn’t that simple, and choosing to love again isn’t, either. Now the only thing standing between Fiona and Nick is the truth. They just need the courage to reach for it.
