Scrambling to save face, CeCe ropes Paul into faking a relationship. But as deceptions stack up, she questions whether her ex is really the nice guy he seemed. And what about her strange new feelings for Paul--is this love, lust, or an illusion born of heartbreak?

She asks all the questions about relationships and sexuality I kept locked in my mind as a teen, and her desire for answers broke my heart and then filled it up. An immediate favorite. <b>- Rachel Lynn Solomon author of <i>You'll Miss Me When I'm Gone</i> and <i>Our Year of Maybe</i> </b> <p/>A true celebration of girls--their bravery, their flaws, their hearts, and the sisterhood that binds them. <i>Have A Little Faith in Me</i> is a thoughtful, no-holds-barred look at sex, consent, and the healing power of female friendship. <b>- Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of <i>Firsts</i> and </b><i><b>Last Girl Lied To</b> <p/></i>"[A] romantic comedy that explores feminism and comprehensive sex education against the backdrop of a conservative religious summer camp. First-time author Sonia Hartl tackles all of these topics and more with finesse--always candid, always open-minded and very rarely heavy-handed...
