This sweet, funny, electrifying romance stars sixteen-year-old Audre Mercy-Moore.
Meet Audre. Junior class president. Debate team captain. Unofficial student therapist. Desperately in need of a good time.
Meet Bash. Mysterious new senior. Everybody’s crush. Tall, floppy, great taste in jewelry. King of having a good time.
It’s the last day of school at Cheshire Prep, Brooklyn’s elite academy—and Audre Mercy-Moore’s life is a mess. Her dad canceled her annual summer visit to his Malibu beach house. Now? She’s stuck in a claustrophobic apartment with her mom, stepdad, and one-year-old sister (aka the Goblin Baby).
Under these conditions, she’ll never finish writing her self-help book — i.e., the key to winning over Stanford’s admissions board.
Cut to Bash Henry! Audre hires him to be her “fun consultant.” His job? To help her complete the Experience Challenge — her list of five wild dares designed to give her juicy book material. She’ll get inspiration; he’ll get paid. Everybody wins.
He isn’t boyfriend material, and she’s not looking for one. Can they stay professional despite their obvious connection?
Scorching-hot summer. Scorching-hot chemistry. But Audre and Bash can’t forget — they’re just friends.
Perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Nicola Yoon!
