Pretty and popular track star Marijke Monti is confident about almost everything – she’s got great friends, a great family, and she’s on her way to the State Track Championship. In fact, the only thing Marijke isn’t confident about is her relationship with Tommy Lawson.
Lily Spencer has spent her entire high school career preparing for the future – she’s participated in every extracurricular activity and volunteer committee she could. But, at home, she watches her mother go on date after date with dud-dudes, still searching for “the one.” Lily realizes that she’s about to graduate and still hasn’t even had a boyfriend.
While they live on each other’s periphery at school, Lily and Marijke never seemed to have much in common; but, after a coincidental meeting at the movie theater, Lily gets an idea – why can’t life be like a movie? Why can’t they set up their perfect romantic situations, just in time for their senior prom, using movie techniques?
Once the girls come up with the perfect plans, they commit themselves to being secret cohorts and, just like in the movies, drama ensues.
My teaser, from 21% in the egalley:
"A romance meter," she says over her shoulder. "One kiss for 'just friends,' two for 'fun and flirty,' etc. It goes up to five--'hot 'n' heavy' or something like that."Happy release day to Just Like the Movies! This sounds so cute, so I'm really excited to read it. :) Gotta love fun romance books in the summer!
This is what I get for complaining about Senior Wills--a prom proposal expose complete with a rating system?
I force myself not to gag. Here it is--hard-hitting journalism at its best, folks. I'm sure my Pulitzer is already on its way.
I'll be visiting around and visiting back, so leave me links to your teasers! :) Happy Tuesday!
