Description
Heart attacks happen to other people #thingsIthoughtweretrue
When Morgan's mom gets sick, it's hard not to panic. Without her mother, she would have no one—until she finds out the dad who walked out on her as a baby isn't as far away as she thought...
Adam is a stuck-up, uptight jerk #thingsIthoughtweretrue
Now that they have a summer job together, Morgan's getting to know the real Adam, and he's actually pretty sweet...in a nerdy-hot kind of way. He even offers to go with her to find her dad. Road trip, anyone?
5000 Twitter followers are all the friends I need #thingsIthoughtweretrue
With Adam in the back seat, a hyper chatterbox named Amy behind the wheel, and plenty of Cheetos to fuel their trip, Morgan feels ready for anything. She's not expecting a flat tire, a missed ferry, a fake girlfriend...and that these two people she barely knew before the summer started will become the people she can't imagine living without.
A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
Praise for Janet Gurtler:
“Gurtler handles complex issues of race, identity, friendship and fidelity with laugh-out-loud humor and engaging frankness... once you’re in you won’t regret it.”—RT Book Reviews
“Gurtler demonstrates sensitivity toward her characters and insight into their emotional responses . . . the characters breathe with life.”—Kirkus
“Gurtler allows real life to prevail, avoiding the all-too-easy, ‘after-school special’ ending many writers might have chosen. Major characters are well-developed, and even adults are portrayed in a realistic, although not always positive, light.” – VOYA
