Description
Liz Buxbaum has always believed in romance movies—especially the kind that deliver a perfect, magical happily-ever-after. When her long-time crush, Michael, returns to town, Liz is determined to orchestrate her own movie-worthy moment, even as her plans collide with the boy next door, Wes, who’s been there all along. As Liz and Wes scheme their way toward being noticed, she finds herself unexpectedly drawn to him, forcing her to question what she thinks love is supposed to look like. With sharp humor, heartfelt sincerity, and a rom-com sensibility that feels like stepping into a film, this story explores themes of longing, misjudgment, and choosing the kind of happy ending that’s real—not just scripted.
