By: Shana Youngdahl
The powerful story of a girl struggling to figure out her estranged brother, a new love, and her own life just as wildfires beset her small California town—perfect for fans of Nina LaCour and Kathleen Glasgow
Seventeen-year-old Caprice wants to piece her family back together now that her older brother has returned home, even as she resents that he ever broke them apart. Just as she starts to get a new footing—falling in love for the first time, uncertainly mending her traumatized relationship with her brother, completing the app that will win her a college scholarship and a job in tech—wildfires strike Sierra, her small California town, forcing her to reckon with a future that is impossible to predict.
A love story of many kinds, and a reflection of the terrifying, heartbreaking Camp Fire that destroyed Paradise, California, where the author grew up, this is a tale that looks at what is lost and discovers what remains, and how a family can be nearly destroyed again and again, and still survive.

"Smart and moving . . . beautiful." —Kirkus (starred review)
"Eloquent . . . well-drawn, realistic . . . Goes straight to the heart.” —Booklist (starred review)
"A thoughtful, hopeful tight-rope walk between first loss and first love." —Daisy Garrison, author of Six More Months of June
"Heart-wrenching and lyrical." —Jeff Zentner, author of In The Wild Light
“You can’t help but fall in love with the world inside this book.” —Helena Fox, award-winning author of How It Feels to Float
