The Reading Warehouse

A captivating contemporary novel about first love, second chances, and the power of memory, by the author of Between Us and the Moon, perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen and Katie Cotugno.

One year ago, Penny Berne was the star of her high school's theater department, surrounded by a group of misfits and falling in love with her best friend, Wes.

Now her old friends won't talk to her, her first love, Wes, ignores her, and her best friend is the most popular girl in school. Penny is revered--and hated.

But when a near-fatal lightning strike leaves Penny with no memory of the past year, or how she went from drama nerd to queen bee, Penny realizes she may have the second chance she never expected....
