Publisher Description

From the award-winning and New York Times bestselling author of The Rest of the Story comes a powerful novel about loss, love, and moving on.

Nothing is going as planned for Macy this summer.

 

Not the job at Wish Catering, and definitely not Wes.

 

But Macy soon discovers that the things you expect least are sometimes the things you need most.

 

“Dessen gracefully balances comedy with tragedy and introduces a complex heroine worth getting to know.” —Publishers Weekly
