"When I wasn't reading this book, it was all I wanted to be doing. Adorably romantic and fun! I loved it." —Kasie West, author of The Distance Between Us
When Stella Samuel meets a gorgeous blue-eyed guy at Starbucks and shows him her camera, it's nothing more than a moment—one that takes her breath away, sure, but it's not like she'll ever see him again. This year she's postponing college to support her sister, Cara, as she fights cancer, and she doesn't have time for anything else.Â
While Stella would rather not spend three hours in line to get autographs from some band called The Heartbreakers, her sister's a huge fan. It'll be totally worth it to surprise Cara on her birthday.
But Stella gets a surprise of her own. That guy in Starbucks? Turns out he's Oliver Perry, lead singer of the Heartbreakers. And even though Stella hates his music (and tells him so), and it's weird that he's famous, they're falling for one another. Being with Oliver makes anything feel possible, even the dreams she'd put on hold. But how can Stella even think of following them when her sister could be dying?
The first book in The Heartbreak Chronicles series—now in a new edition!Â
With a perfect balance of humor, heart, and romance, The Heartbreakers is a great choice for readers looking for:
- fun contemporary romance for teens
- romcoms that cover deeper issues like family, illness, and self-discovery
- binge-worthy YA novels
