Ordinary Love: 'A page-turning romance' (Guardian)
Autor Marie Rutkoskien Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 iun 2025
Emily has a life many would envy: a Manhattan townhouse, two sweet children and an adoring husband, Jack. But Jack isn't what he appears, and Emily's marriage is secretly troubled.
During their rocky separation, Emily encounters someone she's tried not to think about for years: Gen Hall.
As teenagers, she was Emily's best friend, first love - and first heartbreak. Emily thought that she'd never recover from losing her. Now, separated by over a decade of mistakes and miscommunications, can they find their way back to each other?
What comes next is a sweeping queer love story about desire, friendship, and above all, the possibility of second chances.

Recenzii
Once in a while one of those truly brilliant books comes along that takes over your life - and, for 2025, Ordinary Love is the book hitting the spot
This summer's smart beach read, with shades of Pineapple Street and The Paper Palace
An immersive, glamorous, sexy and gripping modern love story to gulp down hungrily and quickly
This sexy, summer romance slips down as easily as oysters and champagne
An exquisitely tender and beautifully written portrayal of enduring love
A gorgeous queer literary romance
A page-turning romance
Vivid . . . A sweeping, decades-spanning tale of queer desire and thwarted ambition . . . Beautifully rendered and touchingly told, this is one for romance fans everywhere
I stayed up way too late to finish this beautifully written novel, which had me hooked from the first page. A truthful, hopeful look at navigating family, life and love.
This is an almost unbearably beautiful love story. Emily and Gen feel completely real: on the rare occasion I managed to put this book down, I thought about them constantly. It broke my heart to let them go when I turned the final page. Ordinary Love is extraordinary.
I'm obsessed with this novel. It demands obsession because it is so rich with feeling and nuance; you fall into a vat of emotion as you read, the way its heroine falls into her desire. A must for lovers of Sally Rooney, extremely sexy love stories, and characters who feel so real you see them in your dreams. A must for lovers, full stop
This novel is remarkable and profoundly moving. A beautifully written, intelligent, quietly hopeful story about being lost and found.
A brilliant examination of queerness, friendship, motherhood, longing and ambition. It's funny and moving and sexy. Above all, it's a stunning love story
A sweeping tale. Tender, truthful and gorgeously written, I devoured it in a few days.
Ordinary Love sparkles with the excitement, danger and wonder of love in all its forms
Evocative and emotional, surprising and propulsive, the whole of it brimming with tenderness. Rutkowski's prose is poetic and sharp, writing to be savored. Perhaps most unforgettable is the chemistry between Emily and Gen, which crackles and explodes on the page
Shining with rare clarity
[A] raw, gorgeous debut
This book will break you then put you back together again
A tender romance that explores heartbreak, integrity and second chances

'Sparkles with excitement, danger and wonder of love in all its forms' Sophie Ward, Book Prize longlisted author of The Schoolhouse
'Evocative and emotional, surprising and propulsive, the whole of it brimming with tenderness' Carola Lovering, bestselling author of Tell Me Lies and Bye, Baby
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AN ORDINARY LOVE STORY
When Emily catches sight of Gennifer Hall at a party, she is transported back to the moment they fell in love as teenagers. Their connection was electric, and they thought it was forever.
Twenty years later, Gen is an Olympic runner, the career she strived for, while Emily is living a picture-perfect life: Manhattan townhouse, two young children and a wealthy husband, Jack. But Jack's controlling behaviour is spiralling, and Emily has lost sight of who she once was.
Now, despite Emily's fracturing marriage and the pressures of Gen's career, they are drawn back together by a magnetic attraction. After years of heartbreak, missed chances and misunderstandings, will they finally get a second chance at first love?
