| Publisher Description: Beginnings and endings overlap in this soaring novel of love and grief from Printz Honor medal winner and National Book Award finalist Deb Caletti. Nothing lasts forever, and no one gets that more than Tessa. After her mother died, it's all Tessa can do to keep her friends, her boyfriend, and her happiness from slipping away. And then there's her dad. He's stuck in his own daze, and it's so hard to feel like a family when their house no longer seems like a home. Her father's solution? An impromptu road trip that lands them in Tessa's grandmother's small coastal town. Despite all the warmth and beauty there, Tessa can't help but feel even more lost. Enter Henry Lark. He understands the relationships that matter. And more importantly, he understands her. A secret stands between them, but Tessa's willing to do anything to bring them together--because Henry may just be her one chance at forever. |
