Starlight

Starlight #1

by Cassandra Morphy

Hope has spent her whole life being the new girl, dragged from base to base by a father whose classified work she has never been allowed to ask about. Staying closeted has always been easier that way. No roots, no relationships, no complications.

Then they move to Kulpon Park.

The town is strange. The teenagers who live there are stranger. And the girl named Eddi, flirtatious, electric, impossible to ignore, is the strangest thing of all.

What starts as a crush becomes something Hope cannot explain and cannot walk away from. But Eddi is hiding something. Something that connects directly to her father's secret work. Something that could get them both killed.

Starlight is a sapphic YA science fiction romance about a closeted army daughter, a shapeshifting alien with no gender, a first contact hidden in plain sight, and a love story that was never supposed to happen.

The characters feel "teen real," which made it easy to get into the story. The friendships, awkward moments, and social tension all felt believable
