From the New York Times bestselling author of One Last Stop and Red, White & Royal Blue comes a romantic comedy about chasing down what you want, only to find what you need...

After her moms moved her from SoCal to Alabama for high school, she’s spent the past four years dodging gossipy classmates and the puritanical administration of Willowgrove Christian Academy. The thing that’s kept her going: winning valedictorian. Her only rival: prom queen Shara Wheeler, the principal’s perfect progeny.

But a month before graduation, Shara kisses Chloe and vanishes.

On a furious hunt for answers, Chloe discovers she’s not the only one Shara kissed. There’s also Smith, Shara’s longtime quarterback sweetheart, and Rory, Shara’s bad boy neighbor with a crush. The three have nothing in common except Shara and the annoyingly cryptic notes she left behind, but together they must untangle …

It's a petty high school rivalry/love story, so, don't expect anything else. Buuut. I like it a lot.

I don't usually appreciate those marketing comparisons of different authors. But I kept thinking two of them: - "this is like John Green (and maybe David Levithan) but without all the stuff that makes me roll my eyes" - "this is like Courtney Summers, but without all the terrible bad things happening"

It's fairly lighthearted, it has a lot of queers, and I like how the big plot/character issues are at the same time shown as deeply important and totally everyday.
