Forbidden Love
Isabelle hated her new town. She hated her new school. She especially hated her plastic new classmates.
Everything changed when she met Lug. He was more robust and adapted to cold weather than the other boys. He did horribly in school, but was the best running back the football team had ever seen. He ignored the rules of decorum the others obsessed over, like trendy clothes or utensils for his food.
Isabelle soon discovered Lug's secret. He was a neanderthal. Although interspecies reproduction was frowned upon, and they would produce no viable offspring, Isabelle didn't care. She was in love.
