About the Book
Samira Haddad has built her life around being the person who answers. A queer Palestinian American college student helping run a local mutual aid network, she is always the one making the calls, covering the gaps, and carrying more than anyone realizes. Being needed has become its own kind of identity, and maybe the only one she trusts.
Ari Bell has no interest in chaos disguised as care. A Black nonbinary community medic with a gift for structure, restraint, and reading a room before it falls apart, Ari sees exactly how fragile the network has become and exactly how much of it is resting on Samira’s shoulders. Their first instinct is to challenge her. Samira’s first instinct is to hate them for it.
But when food drives turn into late nights, emergency texts turn into private conversations, and one crisis after another forces them into uneasy partnership, anger begins to shift into trust. Then trust becomes something far more dangerous. Because Ari is the first person who refuses to admire Samira for burning herself out, and Samira is the first person who makes Ari want something softer than survival.
Set in the exhausting, intimate world of community care, A Schedule for Survival: A Mutual Aid Romance is a queer contemporary love story about burnout, boundaries, shared responsibility, and learning that being loved is not the same thing as being used up.
