Shelby Black has spent the past six months training to be an exorcist. Her great-uncle Roy-a Catholic priest-has put her through exorcist boot camp hell, hoping to develop her talent, but ohmygod, he still doesn't trust her to do an exorcism on her own. High school is hard enough without having to explain that you fight demons for a living, so Shelby keeps her extracurricular activity to herself. The last thing she wants is for her crush, Spencer, to find out what she does in her off time. But Shelby knows how to keep a secret-even a big one. Like the fact that her mom left under mysterious circumstances and it's all her fault. Shelby is hellbent on finding her mom, no matter what it costs her-even if what it ends up costing her is her soul AND a relationship with Spencer.
Praise for Wesley James Ruined My Life:
"The book's even pacing will entice teens from the start and keep them reading . . . . This [is a] pitch-perfect quirky summer romance." --School Library Journal
"This book was adorable! Light, cute, and a quick read--exactly what I needed. . . . I will definitely be keeping an eye out for more books by Honeybourn in the future." --The Eater of Books
"Immensely readable, utterly charming and absolutely un-put-downable. The duality of Quinn longing to forget Wesley while hurting over being forgotten by her Gran was just beautiful. I got a little weepy. I'm not going to lie." --Jennifer McKenzie
