From the bestselling author of the Love & Gelato series comes a new story about two teens who swap lives for three weeks—and break the one rule they meant to follow: don’t fall in love.

Birdie Hess and Mabel deRossi are strangers who’ve agreed to trade lives for three weeks—new city, new closet, new rules to follow via letters left behind. For heartbroken, love-averse Birdie, the deal seems simple enough: follow a list of cryptic clues around Manhattan, prove she had fun, and go home to Los Angeles no worse for wear. Mabel’s only real instruction is a postscript that should be easy to keep: P.S. Don’t fall in love.
Then there’s Santi—the infuriatingly charming boy next door who’s spent years perfecting the art of never saying goodbye, and who appoints himself Birdie’s tour guide whether she wants one or not. Clue by clue, he leads her through hidden gardens, all-night diners, and the best park bench in the city, and somewhere between the John Lennon memorial and the Brooklyn Bridge at midnight, Birdie starts to feel something she swore she’d locked away for good. The trouble is, Santi doesn’t do relationships, Birdie doesn’t do vulnerability, and neither of them is supposed to be doing this—falling for someone they’re only ever going to have to leave.
With three weeks ticking down and an ocean of unresolved grief, family secrets, and 2,455.5 miles standing between them, Birdie has to decide whether love is a risk worth taking twice. Because rules, it turns out, are so much easier to write than they are to keep.

Willow has never felt like she belonged anywhere and is convinced that the only way to find a true home is to travel the world. But her plans to act on her dream are put on hold when her aloof and often absent mother drags Willow to Salem, Massachusetts, to wrap up the affairs of an aunt Willow didn’t even know she had. An aunt who may or may not have been a witch.
