First love never leaves you.
Eleven-year-old Jack Griffin has spent his entire life moving from country to country. Now, his family is leaving Singapore for Bangkok, forcing him to say goodbye to the only home he's ever really known.
Living with autism, ADHD, dyscalculia, and dyspraxia has never made life easy. New classrooms are terrifying. Friendships are fragile. And fitting in has always felt impossible.
Then he meets Liz.
Kind, funny, and endlessly patient, Liz sees Jack for who he truly is-not for his disabilities. For the first time, Jack discovers what it feels like to belong... and what it means to fall in love.
But growing up isn't always a fairy tale.
When trust is shattered and heartbreak strikes without warning, Jack must decide whether some wounds can ever truly heal.
A heartfelt coming-of-age novel about first love, friendship, betrayal, and discovering that even broken hearts can find hope again.
