Max Saddler doesn't believe in love—not for herself, anyway. With her sharp mind, blunt honesty, and autism diagnosis, she's spent her life on the outside looking in, studying connection instead of pursuing it. But everything changes when she meets Ruby Satterwhite—charming, confident, and everything Max isn't. What starts as a tense academic rivalry sparks into something far more powerful... and far more complicated.

The Rules series follows Max and Ruby across three unforgettable stages of love: falling, staying, and growing together. From first sparks and messy miscommunications to career changes, family pressure, and the question of parenthood, their story is one of navigating life—and each other—on their own terms. Smart, funny, and full of heart, this sapphic romance trilogy explores what it really takes to build a lasting relationship when love doesn't follow a script.

Perfect for fans of character-driven romance, neurodiverse rep, and slow-burn emotional payoffs that stick with you long after the final chapter.
