'From poignant friendships to all-consuming crushes, this story has it all! Ellie's journey had me hooked from the very first page and I loved experiencing the high and lows of returning home with her. Fans of Never Been Kissed are sure to love this book!' Falon Ballard, author of Just My Type
In this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy, one woman finds that to keep her dream job, she'll have to face her worst nightmare: high school.
Ellie Jenkins definitely didn't peak in high school.
She was an outsider, the invisible girl with a desperate crush on a guy who hardly knew her name. But having worked her butt off to put her nerdy, outcast teen years behind her, she's finally got what she always wanted: a life in Los Angeles and a job as a writer for a hit tv show.
Everything's going perfectly until an invitation for her high school reunion arrives. Ellie doesn't want to go, but her writing has been suffering and her boss gives her an ultimatum: go to this reunion or lose her big break forever.
Taking the bait, Ellie heads back to school, but no one at the reunion is what she expected. Not her ex-best friend, who still has the ability to see right through Ellie.
And not her secret crush, who has only gotten hotter, sexier, and way more complicated.
The only way she's going to survive this whole weird ordeal is by fixing her bad high school karma, kissing the boy who got away, and getting the hell out of Ohio for good. But as Ellie soon discovers - in real life, you can't just rewrite the script.
