Description
FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF BETTER THAN THE MOVIES!
Emilie has the worst Valentine's Day ever-only to relive it over and over again. Perfect riotous romantic YA fiction where 50 First Dates meets Groundhog Day.
After living through a dumpster fire of a Valentine's Day, Emilie escapes to her grandmother's house for some comfort and a consolation pint of Ben & Jerry's. She passes out on the couch, but when she wakes up, she's back home in her own bed-and it's Valentine's Day all over again. And the next day? Another nightmare V-Day.
Emilie is stuck in some sort of time loop nightmare that she can't wake up from as she re-watches her boyfriend, Josh, cheat on her day after day. Not only that but Emilie can't get away from the enigmatic Nick, who she keeps running into-sometimes literally-in unfortunate ways.
How many days can one girl passively watch her life go up in flames? And when something good starts to come out of these terrible days, what happens when the universe stops doling out do-overs?
Pre-order Nothing Like the Movies, the swoony sequel to Better than the Movies and don't miss out on Betting on You from Lynn Painter!
