A crush takes an unexpected turn

Samantha’s vivid dreams seem to point toward Stella, the model who moves in next door, and her best friend Autumn tries to turn that coincidence into a romance with a fake double date. But the story’s romantic focus shifts as Samantha recognizes her feelings for Autumn in the course of their library sessions and shared jokes. The setup brings friendship and attraction into direct conflict: Samantha must weigh honesty against the risk of changing a bond she deeply values. Framed as a young adult coming-of-age romance, the story centers on bisexual identity, self-discovery, and the difficult choices that arise when a hoped-for romance is not the one that matters most.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in coming-of-age romance.
  • Readers seeking a romance centered on bisexual identity and self-discovery.

Book overview

For months, she has had vivid dreams about a beautiful stranger. Then the impossible happens: the girl from her fantasies moves into the house right next door. Her name is Stella, a commercial model, and Samantha does not have the slightest clue how to talk to her.

That is where her fiercely loyal best friend comes in. Autumn refuses to let fate go to waste and orchestrates a fake double date to push the two together.

The plan works perfectly. But as Samantha finally gets closer to her supposed dream girl, she realizes her heart is pointing in an entirely different direction. Suddenly, the late-night library sessions and shared inside jokes with Autumn are making her heart race. The fake dates with Stella only prove that the person she truly desires has been by her side the entire time.

Samantha is now caught in a trap of her making. Telling the truth risks jeopardising the most important friendship in her life. But remaining silent could mean losing her true love forever.
