Story4.5 out of 5 stars 44
Before Quinn Ryan was in love with Jamie Rudawski, she loved Jamie Rudawski, who was her best friend. But when Jamie dumps Quinn a month before their senior year, Quinn is suddenly girlfriend-less and best friend-less. Enter a new crush: Ruby Ocampo, the gorgeous and rich lead singer of the popular band Sweets, who's just broken up with her on-again, off-again boyfriend. Quinn's always only wanted to be with Jamie, but if Jamie no longer wants to be with her, why can't Quinn go all in on Ruby? But the closer Quinn grows to Ruby, the more she misses Jamie.

Still loving YA as not a young adult

Listened to this book on audible to try something new, I usually buy Katie Heaney’s books but the narration really took this to the next level. I’ve read many a straight high school romance story in my younger years, and as a queer adult this *obviously* blows them all away. This book has the duality of focusing on contemporary topics (such as Quinn’s obsession with the USWNT), while also coupled with timeless storylines of young queer love and sexual tension. So yeah, this was awesome. Props on writing another great story that my 17 year old self would’ve swooned over, and my 25 year old self still did.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
