Or at least he was, before he quit the team the last day of junior year without any explanation. How could he tell people he's losing his vision at seventeen? <p/>Straight-laced Olivia thought she had life all figured out. But when her dream internship falls apart, her estranged mother comes back into her life, and her longtime boyfriend ghosts her right before summer break, she starts to think fate has a weird sense of humor. <p/>Each struggling to find a new direction, Aiden and Olivia decide to live summer by chance, letting coin flips, card pulls, and rock, paper, scissors make all the hard decisions. Every fleeting adventure and stolen kiss is as fragile as a coin flip in this heartfelt journey to love and self-discovery from the author of <i>Love Songs & Other Lies</i>.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Bringing the small-town Michigan setting evocatively to the forefront, Pennington's sophomore novel captures the pleasures of new love."--<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/><b>Praise for </b><i><b>Love Songs & Other Lies</b><br></i><br>"A captivating read and a great pick for fans of Morgan Matson and Emery Lord!"--<i>RT Book Reviews<br></i><br>"Filled with lyrics, love, and late nights, Pennington's debut novel will appeal to romance fans of Sarah Dessen and Susane Colasanti."-<i>School Library Journal<br></i><br>"Pennington's debut is a light road-tripping romance about redemption and the love of music."--Publishers Weekly <p/>"Reading Cam & Vee's past and present romance reminds me of <i>This is Us</i>!

She's a wedding planner, after all. Jessica likes the challenge of finding the humor in a sad situation or highlighting the awkwardness in a romantic one. A serial entrepreneur with a BA in Public Relations, Jessica has a passion for grassroots marketing. She lives in a Michigan beach town suspiciously similar to the one in her novel, where she owns more YA novels than many teens and spends most of her time on a laptop, rather than a beach. Her debut novel was <i>Love Songs & Other Lies.</i>
