*One of Seventeen.com’s Most Anticipated Books of Summer*

Two best friends. Two boys. One complicated year.

Everyone at the prestigious Bexley School believes that Sage Morgan and Charlie Carmichael are meant to be. Even though Charlie seems to have a new girlfriend every month, and Sage has never had a real relationship, their friends and family all know it’s just a matter of time until they realise that they are actually in love.

When Luke Morrissey shows up on the Bexley campus his presence immediately shakes things up. Charlie and Luke are drawn to each other the moment they meet, giving Sage the opportunity to steal away to spend time with Charlie’s twin brother, Nick. But Charlie is afraid of what others will think if he accepts that he has much more than a friendship with Luke, that he’s never felt this way before. And Sage fears that if she lets things with Nick get too serious too quickly, they won’t be able to last as a couple outside of high school and miss their chance at forever.

The duo will need to rely on each other and their lifelong friendship to figure things out with the boys they love.

‘An excellent choice for most YA collections, this will be welcomed by fans of Becky Albertalli’s Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda and Molly Backes’s The Princesses of Iowa.’ - School Library Journal
