Praise
* "Engaging from the first page."—VOYA, starred review
"Like Smith's The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight (2012), this sweet novel has a premise worthy of the movies... [The] charming leads, smalltown backdrop, and absurdly romantic conceit will win hearts."—Publishers Weekly
"Utterly convincing... a cast of vivid, sympathetic characters whose fate matters to readers and keeps them turning the pages."—Kirkus Reviews
"The blend of celebrity glitz and small-town coziness gives this summer love story a pleasant frame, and it will leave readers wishing for more time with this endearing couple as the sun rises on their last morning together."—Booklist
"Ellie and Graham sustain a sweet and genuine romance. Their chemistry is undeniable, and readers will wonder about their love story long after the last page."—School Library Journal
"Undeniable chemistry...Ellie and Graham's connection, 'like the pull of a magnet, powerful and inevitable,' lingers on beyond their wistful but optimistic goodbye."—The Horn Book
