Katiey Davis is your regular, shy freshman at Jefferson High School. She and her best friend Bayeleighe are completely and totally obsessed with their favorite band, Third DiMENsion, and on her fourteenth birthday, the unexpected happens: she meets Harlan Smith, the cutest boy in the trio. He's everything she ever imagined and more. But as their time together draws to an end, Katiey knows she isn't ready to let this go just yet. And so, her story of love, betrayal, redemption, abduction, persecution, friendship, backstabbing, flirting, FBI agents, bad cell reception, loyalty, mutiny, hair gel, lip gloss, six inch stilettos, lip-biting, galloping, fangirls, and ancient amulets begins. It's all worth it, though. Loving Harlan Smith is worth everything. Obvi.

It's the last year of high school, and everything has changed . . .
*****
After a summer spent in the Philippines, Lara Dela Cruz is eager to start her senior year and, most importantly, reunite with her three besties. But what she did not expect was to show up on the first day of school to all three of her friends now in relationships. Fighting for their attention, catching some new and confusing feelings for long-time frenemy James, and wading through the pressures of post-high-school plans all have Lara reeling. And to make matters worse, Lara's beautiful and untrustworthy cousin conveniently appears and wiggles her way right between her and James' budding relationship. Feeling like a third wheel in more ways than one, Lara must learn to accept that change is inevitable, love is complicated, and being the odd one out is sometimes where inner power is found.
