<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"After a disastrous, reputation-destroying party at the end of junior year, Kat Henley has a new plan. When it comes to boys--especially other people's boys: Don't touch. Don't smile. Don't charm. In the past, drawing attention to herself helped distract people from what really makes Kat different--having two gay parents. But it's also cost her friendships. Kat can't afford to lose any more of those, especially not her cousin, Harper. They're spending one last summer together at the lake, where they run into an intriguing newcomer named Emmett Reese. After years of trying to prove she's just like everybody else, Kat has found someone who wants her because she's not. A boy who could be everything she wants too--if Harper hadn't liked him first..."--Amazon.com.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><strong>"A deftly written story of friendship, romance, and second chances." --Natasha Sinel, author of <em>The Fix</em></strong> <p/>After a disastrous, reputation-destroying party at the end of junior year, Kat Henley has a new plan.

After a brief stint writing bad poetry as a teenager, she finally found her niche with realistic, coming?of?age YA. Her novel, <i>Out of Nowhere</i>, was a finalist in the 2012 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award contest. She's also the author of the <i>Just You, /I>series and <i>Faking Perfect</i>. <p/>Rebecca lives just outside the beautiful city of Halifax, Nova Scotia, with her husband, two children, and one spoiled rotten cat. She absolutely loves living so close to the ocean. When she's not tapping away on her laptop, she can be found vacuuming up cat hair, spending time with her family, watching reality TV, reading all different genres of books, or strolling around the bookstore with a vanilla latte in her hand.
