Expected 6 Apr 27“An absolute delight." —Rachael Lippincott, New York Times bestselling author of She Gets the Girl
"Smart, surprising, and emotionally devastating in the best way." —Page Powars, New York Times bestselling author of And They Were Roommates
“This love-bomb of a book is Becky Albertalli at her finest." —Dahlia Adler, USA Today bestselling author of Cool for the Summer
#1 New York Times-bestselling author and rom-com queen Becky Albertalli (Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda) weaves two romances into one unforgettable novel–with a surprising twist.
Ellie Milton has never really been in love.
Then one night she stumbles upon wry tomboy Ashley – in the mall, trapped behind the gates of Hot Topic, of all places. Soon, squeaky clean Ellie finds herself drawn into Ashley’s secret world, lying to her own parents and friends to spend more and more time with her. But the pull she feels toward this girl… that’s just because Ashley needs her, right? After all, Ellie’s always considered herself to be straight.
Jane Sewell has fallen in love too many times – and always with straight girls.
If there’s one thing she knows, it’s that shooting her shot leads to guaranteed heartbreak. Which is why she’s going to be single forever, even if her goofball friend Phoebe gives her butterflies. And when her BFF Leo needs a wingwoman to occupy his crush’s big sister, Jane knows better than to fall for softhearted Stella. Because straight girls are straight girls, no matter how confusingly flirty their texts are.
Ellie and Jane’s stories of first love and second chances converge in a surprising twist, showing that there’s nothing more unpredictable than what the heart wants.
A Macmillan Audio production from Balzer + Bray
