Never Chase a Boy

"You've spent your whole life ignoring your friends when they talk about their love lives and shutting down every boy who wants to go out with you. I'm afraid you need a teacher."

I snort.

"Who am I going to find that wants to teach me how to get a boyfriend?" I realize the answer to my superficial question too late.

"Me, duh."

All Noa Dailey wants out of high school is her diploma. To be in and out as quickly as possible and to start her life for real. But loneliness is an unwanted companion that has haunted Noa for much of her life and she's ready for a change. Luckily, a friend of her older brother's steps up with an offer: he will teach Noa how get any guy to chase her, instead of the other way around. No strings attached. For now. Her situation becomes increasingly more complicated, with her father in prison and old connections resurfacing. In this tangled mess of a life, Noa is willing to go far for happiness, but with so many obstacles in her path, that happiness is slipping further from her grasp than ever.
