The #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Someone Like You returns to Los Lobos and her “wit and wisdom are pitch-perfect as usual” (RT Book Reviews, Top Pick, 4 1/2 stars).
First comes love, then comes marriage . . . At least, that was Gracie’s plan at the ripe old age of fourteen, when she loved eighteen-year-old heartthrob Riley with a desperation that made her a town legend. Even now that she’s all grown up, the locals in sleepy Los Lobos won’t let her forget her youthful crush.
And how can she, when she’s face-to-face with Riley at every turn? The onetime bad boy has come back to town seeking respectability—but the sparks that fly between them are anything but respectable. Gracie’s determined to keep her distance, but when someone sets out to ruin both their reputations, the two discover that first love is sometimes better the second time around.
