About The Book
A girl pledges revenge on her school’s playboy—only to start falling for him—in this hilarious teen rom-com perfect for fans of classics like John Tucker Must Die and Clueless.
There’s no one Wren hates more than Beckett Lane.
Girls love Beckett because of his famous dad, and Beckett revels in the unearned attention. It seems like everyone except Wren is susceptible to the Beckett Effect—the phenomenon that makes people, most of all teen girls, fall for him despite his glaring red flags. Unfortunately for Wren, her sister, Kennedy, is vulnerable to Beckett’s charms, and she has a huge, misguided crush on him.
When Beckett humiliates Kennedy at a party in front of the entire school, Wren swears to bring him down once and for all. And what better way to expose him than by using her passion for filmmaking to create a documentary showing just how terrible he really is?
But as Wren cozies up to Beckett to get (hopefully damning) inside information, she starts to wonder if the line between love and hate is as clear as she thought…
