This story is about Liz Buxbaum, a hopeless romantic who believes in happy endings. It is a companion to the popular Better Than the Movies. After going through the ups and downs of senior year, life has fallen into a calm routine. Liz has her boyfriend, her pals, and her aspirations for college, but something isn't right. She has everything she thought she wanted, but she can't shake the feeling that reality doesn't always match up with the happy endings she's been looking for.
When something unexpected happens that puts Liz back in situations that challenge her beliefs about love, she starts to wonder if her notion of a perfectly scripted romance is keeping her from experiencing what's true. Lynn Painter writes funny dialogue, touching scenes, and slow-burn chemistry that will make readers cheer for the characters from the first page.

Readers like that there is an emotional core under the humor and flirting that talks to issues that many young adults deal with: Is what I thought I wanted actually what's best for me? How can I tell if love is real or just a narrative I've made up?
