Summary
Flannery Malone's been in love with Tyrone O’Rourke since they were kids, but Tyrone has grown from a dorky kid into an outlaw graffiti artist, too cool for school. Which is a problem, since he and Flannery are partners for… the entrepreneurship class that she needs to graduate. Meanwhile, Flannery’s mother, Miranda, can’t pay the heating bills, let alone buy Flannery’s biology book, her little brother, Felix, is careening out of control, and her best-friend-since-forever, Amber, has fallen for a guy who is making her forget all about the things she’s always cared most about - Flannery included - leading Amber down a dark and dangerous path of her own. When Flannery decides to make a love potion for her entrepreneurship project, rumours that it actually works go viral, and she suddenly has a hot commodity on her hands. But a series of shattering events makes her realize that real-life love is far more potent - and potentially damaging - than any fairy-tale prescription. For senior high readers. 2016.
