“Dating, we’re often told, is impossible because people are, all too often, impossible. But in No Ordinary Love, five immensely talented writers tell the stories of five couples who chose to imagine the pleasures of the possible, one date at a time. ”
Roxane Gay, The Audacity.
“These stories are not fairytales. They’re honest, complicated and somehow even more romantic because of it. No Ordinary Love nails what it’s like to connect with someone while still figuring your own stuff out.”

“I always say love in real life is way messier than they show in the movies — from imperfect beginnings to surprise pairings. I loved the first round of stories so I’m excited to see Hinge bring their No Ordinary Love series to Substack.”
