A love story perfect for fans of Nina LaCour and Jandy Nelson about a girl who moves cross country and finds herself falling for someone new who throws her whole life out of order.
Nine months after the death of her father, Marigold; her little sister, Bea; and her mom move from sunny California to Upstate New York to live with Mary's aunt El. Maybe New York will be a fresh start for them.
But living in New York means missing all the things Mary left--from her BFF, Nora; to her now long-distance boyfriend, Bennett; her older sister, Hannah; and the memories of her father tied to the places she used to live. How can she keep them in her life with everything so far away?
Then, while settling into the new normal, Mary meets Jesse, a fellow photographer and kindred spirit who just seems to get her. Falling into a friendship with Jesse feels easy, there's something about him she can't stop thinking about. But as things with Bennett are so uncertain, she can't seem to make a move either way. When things come to a head, Mary will have to come clean and decide what she really wants and how she feels--finding a way to finally come to terms with her family, friends, and herself.
