Out of Step, into You is a sapphic romance following childhood friends turned cross-country team rivals who are forced to work together to win the state championship. You can't outrun love. Taylor and Marianna were each other's whole world--best friends, running partners, practically sisters--until Marianna moved away and Taylor ghosted her. When the former best friends turned rivals end up on the same cross-country team three years later, everything is a competition and a reminder of old feelings, as well as blossoming new ones. Marianna runs because she's angry. The oldest child of a single mother, she knows all about responsibility--for her siblings, at her part-time job. She has to stay focused and be faster than the past nipping at her heels if she wants to secure a brighter future. With or without Taylor. Taylor runs to prove herself. The only child of a Divison 1 athlete, she's no stranger to high expectations. She knows she can immortalize herself with a state record and make her parents proud. Then, she can discover her own passion. She doesn't have time to untangle her feelings towards Mari. Can this pair figure out a way to work together before their past catches up with them?
