From the bestselling author of I Wish You All the Best, comes a new kind of love story, about the bad decisions we sometimes make... and the people who help get us back on the right path. Perfect for fans of Red, White, and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston and What If It's Us by Adam Silvera and Becky Albertalli. Just days before spring break, Neil Kearney is set to fly across the country with his childhood friend (and current friend-with-benefits) Josh, to attend his brother's wedding--until Josh tells Neil that he's in love with him and Neil doesn't return the sentiment. With Josh still attending the wedding, Neil needs to find a new date to bring along. And, almost against his will, roommate Wyatt is drafted. At first, Wyatt (correctly) thinks Neil is acting like a jerk. But when they get to LA, Wyatt sees a little more of where it's coming from. Slowly, Neil and Wyatt begin to understand one another... and maybe, just maybe, fall in love for the first time...

The Feeling of Falling in Love

ohh nooooo! oh no! nobody come over here and kiss me so i don’t have to deal with my gender,, oh nooo 🫣

“Are you kissing me because you don’t want to confront the complications of your gender identity?” I ask when we pull apart.

neil coming to terms with everything and trying to be a better person??? i love him

Okay, the reality is probably something closer to none of us being a villain or a hero. We were just people doing their best, the best with what we had.

What did I ever do to deserve a boy so kind?

“Thank you, Wyatt,” I say. “For everything.” 

no thoughts just michael being so drunk he’s a bachelorette instead of a bachelor for the night

I say, “Michael, you’re drunk. We should get you back to the hotel.”

NEIL THIS IS SO GAY ‼️‼️‼️‼️

My eyes keep getting drawn to his bare back, which I’ve seen a hundred times before, but this time, there’s something about the lighting. I wonder if Wyatt’s ever dated any boys.

I really expected it to be better, but it isn’t bad either. Guess my expectations were just too high. It’s an Okay book. Cute.

caught me off guard how much i would love this book. been reading a lot of queer love stories with non binary and trans main characters recently and it’s helped me feel so much more comfortable with myself and the possibility of being loved for the way i see myself. i also really related to some of neil’s issues with his mom and their scene of reconciliation made me ugly cry, crossing my fingers i get that for myself one day. all in all, beautiful book, definitely going in the favorites list. MORE LOVE STORIES WITH NON BINARY CHARACTERS !!!!
