Publisher's Summary

The room is dark, except for the streetlights coming through the blinds. I can barely see her, but I feel her. She pushes me up against the wall, and we kiss harder than we ever have before. I’ve been waiting so long for it to happen, and finally, it’s going to. Then the bedroom door flies open, and someone screams her name....

Britton Walsh has never had a home. After a lifetime in the care system, she doesn't expect she’ll ever find one. But beginning her senior year with new foster parents, in a new city, means starting over - yet again. Tom and Cate Cahill seem okay. The hitch? Their daughter, Avery. 

Beautiful, popular, and cool, Avery is everything Britton is not. She’s all Britton could ever ask for in a sister, or even a friend - but having survived without either for so long, Britton knows the way her heart races whenever Avery enters the room can only mean one thing.... 

But Avery has a secret. Something that is eating away at her and stopping her from letting anyone in, least of all Britton. Will Avery’s insistence on punishing herself for a mistake in her past make Britton's last year of high school, and finding a place to call home, impossible? Can two people so different ever find common ground, friendship, or maybe even something more?  

An unforgettable new adult lesbian romance for fans of Keeping You a Secret by Julie Anne Peters, Her Name in the Sky by Kelly Quindlen, or Nancy Garden’s classic young adult coming-out novel, Annie on My Mind

New adult novel: recommended for 17+ due to mature themes and sexual content.

Surprisingly relatable!

Well written, extremely well read! This is about young love and the hurdles that must be crossed to make it work.
Two different people, this story says, "you can't choose who you fall in love with and sometimes it catches you out.
Bring your tissues near the end, I wish all LGBTQ kids had parents like these.

Feel good story

Really enjoyable book. It was simple and very light; a feel good story which we can all use from time to time. The narrating was outstanding.

Amazing listen

A great story about love and finding family. it does so without all the childish drama you would normally find in a book like this. If your looking for a drama filled queer romance, this isn't it.
