When Jordan Hughes arrives at Pinecrest High School, Elliot Goldman's graduating year suddenly gets a lot more interesting. Smart, good looking and charming, Jordan isn't exactly the kind of person Elliot's used to having as a lab partner. But when they start acing their assignments, life is suddenly about more than boring lectures, bad cafeteria nachos, or relentless bullying, and for the first time ever, Elliot can't wait to get to chemistry class.
As they start spending more time together outside of school, Elliot realizes he's never met anyone quite like Jordan. And then everything changes one night when Jordan kisses him, making Elliot question everything about their relationship and about himself. The butterflies start to make sense-the trouble is, right now, nothing else does.
Love was the last thing on Elliot's mind. But as he begins to figure out how he really feels about Jordan, he realizes that sometimes the last thing you are looking for is the one thing you need the most. Raised in a small Michigan town, M. Montgomery learned early on that she was a bit of an outcast. Instead of trying to blend in with her peers, she embraced what made her different, and dove headfirst into the things she loved. Persistence in her studies earned her a college degree a month before she graduated from high school, and a dedication to music allowed her the freedom to play multiple instruments and use them to fund her way through college. This motivation will enable Montgomery to graduate with two engineering related degrees by 2023. Lab Partners is her first published work.
