A first romance with a supernatural boundary

Gemma and Jimmy have shared a connection for years, but high school changes how Gemma sees the boy who has remained fifteen. Their growing romance faces a defining obstacle: Jimmy is a ghost, visible only to Gemma and unable to leave the graveyard where he lives. Set in a small town and told from both characters’ perspectives, the story brings together first love, the passage of time, and the limits imposed by Jimmy’s existence. Its central question is whether a relationship can last when the two people in it are moving through life on different terms.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teen and young adult readers interested in romance
  • Readers who enjoy supernatural elements alongside a first-love story
  • Readers seeking a dual-perspective narrative in a small-town setting

Book overview

Can a girl and a ghost get their happily ever after? Find out in this sweet new teen romance from the award-winning author of Flipped.

Gemma and Jimmy have known each other practically all of Gemma's life, but it isn't until she starts high school that she notices that eternally-fifteen-year-old Jimmy is... well... dreamy! He's kinder and funnier than the other boys her age, and she feels like her best self when she's with him.

Meanwhile, Jimmy is shocked to realize that Gemma is growing up. Soon enough she'll overtake him in age, and then one day, she'll lose interest in him entirely. He knows it's selfish to want her to stay close forever, but he can't help it.

The problem is... their romance is doomed to fail. Jimmy is a ghost. No one except Gemma can see him, and he can't leave the graveyard where he lives. How could they ever have a shot at love?

Set in a cozy small town and told in dual POV, this page-turning romance from the bestselling author of Flipped has all the high-stakes emotion and grandeur of a great first love story. Readers will be rooting for Gemma and Jimmy to make it, despite every obstacle thrown their way.
