by Huntley Fitzpatrick (Author)

In this romantic companion novel to My Life Next Door, two teenagers know falling for each other would be risky, but sometimes the connection is just too strong.

"Oh, Huntley Fitzpatrick. You always know how to give my feminist heart a little romance."--Bustle

"A mesmerizing romance between two teens, completely lost in opposite ways, who find themselves in each other."--Jennifer Echols, award-winning author of Forget You

Tim Mason was The Boy Most Likely To:
- find the liquor cabinet blindfolded
- need a liver transplant
- and drive his car into a house

Alice Garrett was The Girl Most Likely To:
- well, not date her little brother's baggage-burdened best friend, for starters

For Tim, it wouldn't be smart to fall for Alice. For Alice, nothing could be scarier than falling for Tim. But Tim has never been known for making the smart choice, and Alice is starting to wonder if "smart" is always right. Soon they find themselves moving closer to each other--until the consequences of Tim's wild past come back to haunt him. With all Alice has to balance in her own world, is she sure she can handle Tim's too?

Author Biography

Huntley Fitzpatrick always wanted to be a writer. She grew up in a small, coastal, Connecticut town much like the Stony Bay of her novels, My Life Next Door, What I Thought Was True, and The Boy Most Likely To. After college she held multiple jobs across publishing--including as an editor at Harlequin, where she worked with a variety of romance authors--and, ultimately, embarked on a writing career of her own. Before her death in 2022, Huntley was a full-time writer, wife, and mom to six children, living on the coast of Massachusetts. She brought the world three critically acclaimed, utterly transporting young adult novels about love, friendship, family, and coming of age. My Life Next Door is considered a modern YA romance classic, and its characters reflect Huntley's deep love for her family, who were everything to her.
