#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From beloved author of The Truth About Forever comes a poignant story of a heartbroken teen who is thrust back into the world of wedding planning.
"Sarah Dessen is the queen of heartfelt YA."--Cosmopolitan "Romance, humor, kindhearted characters, and a touch of painful reality make this another sure bet for Dessen fans."--Kirkus Review
Louna has seen every sort of wedding, from informal on the beach to elegant in historic mansions, all because of her mother's wedding planning business. And working these events every summer means she has also seen every kind of outcome to that "perfect" day. Maybe that's why she's deeply cynical about happily-ever-after endings. Or is there something else that has caused her to lock away her heart? When handsome, happy-go-lucky serial dater Ambrose enters her life, Louna doesn't want to take him seriously. He is sure he can change; Louna is betting that he can't. But Ambrose knows that Louna is the girl he's always been waiting for--the question is, can he convince her to feel the same?Author Biography
