Now in paperback, the story of a girl confronting her estranged brother and a new love just as wildfires beset her small California town—by the acclaimed author of As Many Nows as I Can Get

Seventeen-year-old Caprice wants to piece her family back together now that her older brother has returned home, even as she resents that he ever broke them apart. Just as she starts to get a new footing—falling in love for the first time, uncertainly mending her traumatized relationship with her brother, developing the app that will win her a college scholarship and a job in tech—wildfires strike Sierra, her small California town, undoing everything she's ever known, and forcing her to reckon with a future that is impossible to predict. A love story of many kinds, this is a tale that looks at what is lost and discovers what remains, and how we can be nearly destroyed again and again, and still survive.
