Description: Maya Bennett expects the tiny spider in her apartment to be a harmless nuisance. Then he leaves her a coin and enters her dreams with an earnest request: please stop destroying his webs, and please stop poking his abdomen. His name is Julian Vale. He is painfully shy, surprisingly responsible, and serving a community-service sentence inside Maya's home. He cooks, cleans, spins extraordinary silk, and can assume a half-human form whenever eight legs become inconvenient. There is only one complication Maya never anticipated: among spiders, touching someone carries obligations. By repeatedly giving in to her curiosity, Maya may have claimed far more responsibility for Julian than she realizes. Their negotiated boundaries soon turn into shared meals, handmade gifts, and an increasingly intimate domestic routine. But Maya's outside life refuses to stay outside. Her mother is determined to see her married, while Caleb Vance, a charming former date with a talent for manipulation, uses his flawless public image to make Maya look unreasonable. When Julian steps forward to defend her in the most unexpected way possible, their private arrangement becomes impossible to dismiss. Now Julian is maturing, Maya is questioning where friendship ends, and the rules binding them together are becoming harder to treat as a joke. Letting a spider move in was easy. Deciding what he means to her could change both their lives. Author Biography: Grace Turner crafts heartwarming young adult romance about first love, self-discovery, and finding your path.
