When two former teen stars reconnect at the reunion for their hit TV show, they discover their feelings for one another were not merely scripted in this charming and heartwarming novel perfect for fans of Christina Lauren and Sally Thorne.Liv Latimer grew up on TV. As the star of the popular teen drama Girl on the Verge, Liv spent her adolescence on the screen trying to be as picture perfect as her character in real life. But after the death of her father and the betrayal of her on-screen love interest and off-screen best friend Ransom Joel, Liv wanted nothing more than to retreat, living a mostly normal life aside from a few indie film roles. But now, twenty years after the show’s premiere, the cast is invited back for a reunion special, financed by a major streaming service. Liv is happy to be back on set, especially once she discovers Ransom has only improved with age. And their chemistry is certainly still intact. They quickly fall into their old rhythms, rediscovering what had drawn them together decades before. But with new rivalries among the cast emerging and the specter of a reboot shadowing their shoot, Liv questions whether returning to the past is what she needs to finally get her own happy ending.

"It’s not that this book was bad, it was a decent romance. I’m just not into celebrity couples, it’s very hard for the connections to seem real and genuine."

"Fun read that really pulls you in. Liv was the star of THE hit scripted series that ended 20 years ago, and a reunion special is finally coming together that will show where all the characters are now 20 years later. Speculation runs rampant that this one-off reunion may turn into a reboot and Liz isn't so sure she wants this. The cast feels like family, she grew up with them, and she is connecting with a castmate in a life changing way. If she declines the reboot everyone may be out of a job. "

"Binge worthy! This book feels like spilling the tea to your bestie while also having magnetic chemistry between Main characters that urges you to keep going! The only thing that I didn't love about the story were the "headlines"/paparazzi blurbs between chapters. But they didn't take away from the story for Me. "

"I had so much hope for this plot. But it just didn’t live up to its potential. The world building and characters were fine, but they didn’t feel connected at all. There was no chemistry anywhere to be found, imo. "

"What great encapsulated story! I wish I had a follow up. The main characters were very relatable and I wanted to see how their story plays out. I could have done without the buzzfeed-like articles. It does fit in with the celebrity themes of the story, but it really doesn't add anything of value. "

"This was one of my most highly anticipated new releases for 2023 and it honestly really fell flat for me. I’m very much a dialogue person and this book was probably like 60% description. It got really annoying every time a scene changed and we would have to learn every detail about the setting and the clothes everyone was wearing. I honestly just wanted it to get to the point"

"This book was so good-- I loved the writing. It was such a fun summer read except... I wish it had more spice. I loved the chemistry between Liv and Ransom and I needed more of it. "
