Dumped by her boyfriend the summer after senior year, teen love and relationship columnist Lu Charles has hit a wall with her writing. The words just wont come to her like they used to and if she doesnt come up with a topic for her column, shell lose her gig at hip online magazine Misnomer, and the college scholarship that goes along with it.
Her best friend, Pete, thinks she should write through her own pain, but when Lu overhears another couple planning a precollege breakup just like hers, she becomes convinced that theyre the answer to cracking her writers block. And when she meets them - super-practical Iris and cute, sweet Cal - and discovers theyre postponing their breakup until the end of the summer, she has to know more.
Have Cal and Iris prolonged their own misery by staying together, knowing the end is in sight Or does the secret to figuring out all this love business - and getting over it - lie with them One thing is certain - if Lu cant make a breakthrough before summer is over, she can kiss her future goodbye.
