Gideon always has a plan. It includes running for class president, becoming head of the yearbook committee, and having his choice of colleges. It does NOT include falling head over heels for his best friend, Kyle. It's a distraction, it's pointless - Kyle is already dating the head cheerleader, Ruby - and Gideon doesn't know what to do. Kyle finally feels like he has a handle on life. He has a wonderful girlfriend, a best friend willing to debate the finer points of Lord of the Rings, and social acceptance as captain of the basketball team. So when both Ruby and Gideon start acting really weird, just as his spot on the team is threatened, Kyle can't quite figure out what he did wrong. Sandy Hall meets Taylor Swift in this quirky and heartfelt YA novel.
It really was everything I had hoped it would be. . . If you need a cute romance to end your summer with, read this. It's sweet. It's adorable. It's full of emotions. It's one of the best romances I've ever read, and I'll be reading this one again multiple times. --Here's to Happy Endings
This book is sweet and fun and all sorts of adorable. It was a typical, simple high school romance, but it was kind of nice to see one of those with LGBT characters--without a lot of angsty complications. . . If you're a fan of cute YA romance, this book will hit the spot. --Feed Your Fiction Addiction
Such a fun, adorable read . . . another fun addition to Hall's repertoire of swoonworthy reads. --Good Books & Good Wine
Atmospheric and heart-warming . . . [Kyle and Gideon] have the kind of friendship we all wish we had. They know one another to the core of their beings. I have some real friendship goals right now, because of the two of them. --Hit Or Miss Books
