A gorgeous debut about family, friendship, first romance, and how to be true to one person you love without betraying anotherThe Garretts are everything the Reeds are not. Loud, numerous, messy, affectionate. And every day from her rooftop perch, seventeen-year-old Samantha Reed wishes she were one of them . . . until one summer evening, Jase Garrett climbs her trellis and changes everything. As the two fall fiercely in love, Jase's family embraces Samantha, even as she keeps him a secret from her own. Then, in an instant, her two worlds collide in an unthinkable tragedy that leaves Samantha reeling and wrestling with an impossible decision—one that no one could have seen coming, and that no one but her can make.A dreamy, enthralling summer read, full of characters who stay with you long after the last page is turned, and that asks, which way do you turn when your heart pulls you in opposite directions?

"I listened to this and it was really cute actually. I thought it was going to be pretty corny but I liked this book a lot!"

"Just a fun and quick read!"

"It was a good book, Nan was a terrible friend and the ending wasn’t my favorite, could have been better."

Alyssa Bull

"DNF. Hated the characters, I could not stand to read another page. This was probably because I was starting to get into LGBT books at the time of reading this."

"This was a fun read! A little slow at first but as soon as I got into it, it was over before I knew it! Huge plot twist but the story was very real and raw which I personally like in a book. Love Samantha and Jase’s relationship!"
