    About this audiobook

    ""A beautiful, poised, and thought-provoking debut about love, loss, coming out, and discovering living life on your own terms."" —New York Times bestselling author Kathleen Glasgow

    There are two things that Corinne Parker knows to be true: that she is in love with Maggie Bailey, the captain of the rival high school's cross-country team and her secret girlfriend of a year, and that she isn't ready for anyone to know she's bisexual.

    But then Maggie dies, and Corinne quickly learns that the only thing worse than losing Maggie is being left heartbroken over a relationship no one knows existed. And to make things even more complicated, the only person she can turn to is Elissa—Maggie's ex, and the single person who understands how Corinne is feeling.

    As Corinne struggles to make sense of her grief and what she truly wants out of life, she begins to have feelings for the last person she should fall for. But to move forward after losing Maggie, Corinne will have to learn to be honest with the people in her life...starting with herself.

    Editor's Note

    Live your truth…

    Having a secret same-sex relationship with a rival school’s cross-country captain is hard. Dealing with the grief that comes when she dies is practically unbearable. Corinne struggles after Maggie’s sudden death and finds the only one she can turn to is Maggie’s ex. Corinne is bisexual and wondering how to live her truth.

      4.5 stars! This was an incredible journey that was heart wrenching at times, but beautiful at others. Absolutely recommend this for anyone who wants (or needs) to read about a bisexual girl and her path to self discovery and coming out.

      I loved it. A coming of age story dealing with grief, sexuality, coming out. Perfect.
    • 5/5
      I loved this book. The narrator was one of the best I've ever listened to.
    • 4/5
      I related to the main characters struggles a lot and I thought this book was quite moving.
      The main character can come off as a bit egotistical or self centered in some parts but it also just showed human flaws in her characterisation.
