The unfiltered story of a teen girl trying to escape the spotlight and the PR relationship that helps her find real happiness. Kia’s story is messy and romantic and completely unforgettable, perfect for fans of Jenny Han, Casey McQuiston or Mary H.K. Choi.
Just a discombobulated nepo baby in an overwhelming world…
Growing up in the public eye, Kia would gladly give up her privileged life as the daughter of a reality star for the freedom to find her own way—go to parties, go to college, make mistakes and fall in love like any other teen.
Then she meets Cass, and he offers a glimpse at the ordinary life she craves. But Cass is a rising star in his own right, and what starts as something sweet and undefined soon becomes a magnet for gossip and speculation—as if first love wasn't messy enough on its own.
The pressure of the spotlight starts taking its toll, chipping away at Kia's sense of self, pushing and pulling and reshaping her—body and mind—to fit the expectations of everyone around her. But what does Kia want for herself? And can her fragile new relationship survive the fallout?
