Official synopsis Publisher
There are more than 10 things to hate about prom, but the worst is having to convince your BFF that you’re the one he should take—a sweet friends-to-lovers teen rom-com from the author of Caught in a Bad Fauxmance
“A love story meant for the movies, with cheeky and charming nods to our favorite nineties flicks.” —K. L. Walther, bestselling author of The Summer of Broken Rules
Ivelisse Santos has had Joaquin Romero’s back since their first playdate. Not just next-door neighbors, they’re platonic soulmates.
At least, that’s what Ive thinks, until Joaquin decides to ask Tessa Hernandez, the same girl who stole Ive’s boyfriend, to prom. Sure, the head cheerleader and the star baseball player going to prom together makes more sense than Joaquin and Ivelisse—leader of tech crew—would. But that doesn’t mean it should actually happen.
What’s worse, Joaquin wants Ivelisse’s help planning an elaborate promposal. As much as she wants to say no, she’ll take all the quality time with Joaquin she can get before graduation. Even if it means watching her best friend fall for somebody else. Somebody who isn’t her.
