About this ebook

From Schneider Family Book Award Honor-winning author Claire Forrest comes a romantic and joyful read perfect for fans of The Summer of Broken Rules.

Seren's only goal for the summer is to meet her idol, pop star Emery Aster. But she's so busy with her fandom life that she's in danger of missing out on what's happening right in front of her--including the cute boy who wants to give her his heart.

Seren is completely, obsessively in love.

She's devoted to Emery Aster, the popstar whose music provides the soundtrack to her life. Seren runs Emery's largest updates account, she's a vocal member of the Asteroid fandom, and she is dying to be chosen for an exclusive meet-and-greet with Emery. She loves the person she can be online -- confident, clever, and not isolated because of her disability.

But Seren is about to be yanked into the real world -- if you can call the small town of Evergreen, Wisconsin the real world. Sent to live with her father for the summer, and forced to get a job in a year-round Christmas store, Seren has no choice but to take off her headphones and get offline.

Working alongside the slightly grinchy Gideon and his sister Billie, Seren is slowly drawn into the town's summer rhythm. And when Gideon and Billie invite Seren to hang out, she accepts -- but mostly because tubing on the lake makes good content for videos set to Emery's music.

But as the summer goes on -- and her feelings for Gideon start to deepen -- Seren starts to wonder if her loyalty to a popstar might be keeping her heart from someone who sees her for who she really is.

Sparklingly joyful, and romantic, this is a feel-good read about learning to be open to real life and real love.
