After the tragic death of Valentina Russo's mother, she is shipped of from her home in Australia to California to live with her newly discovered brothers. From the outside, Valentina looks like a normal surfer girl but that statement couldn't be more false, yes she surfs but she also learnt to drive at the age of 12 because her neighbors needed help harvesting their orchards, speaks more than 5 languages, can hold alcohol better than anyone, works at the local mechanics shop and has the mouth of a sailor. Her brothers are the typical badboy, player type, with the addition of running the biggest mafia there is.

At the age of 13, Valentina was diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer. After a year of treatments, the tumor had visibly shrunk, but wouldn't disappear, so they stopped treatments and noticed that the cancer hadn't spread. But anything could trigger a relapse and cause the cancer to spread again. Will she stay healthy or will she become bed ridden again...

The Russo brothers have known about Valentina's existence all their lives, the older ones remember playing with her for hours on end and the younger ones have heard countless stories about her. The Russo Brothers all fit the badboy stereotype, the smoke, drink, drive amazing cars and get into fights. Having Valentina with them will definitely change them, but for better or for worse?

WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION There are imperfect moments in every life-but sometimes, there are perfect accidents . . . What's the point of pretending nothing has changed when everything has? It's the last summer before college, and Jonas Avery knows he should be excited. Instead, he hides out at home, avoiding his friends, his family, and everything that resembles his old life. Because nothing will be normal again-because of The Accident, when everything started falling apart. Brennan Davis knows she needs to stand up and face her anxiety-the deep, dark, debilitating dread that rules her everyday life. Because what stops her from going out into the world and just living is going to get a whole lot worse. She's leaving for college in the fall, where she'll be confronted with even more to worry about. To get back up sometimes you have to fall down, hard . . . When Jonas crashes into Brennan-in a harmless, albeit embarrassing fender bender-the two teens connect in ways they never expected. As friends, they help each other overcome their biggest falls and faults, and soon discover that while love can't fix everything, it's sometimes a place to start. Sensitive, wry, and unabashedly authentic, The Opposite of Falling Apart isn't about finding perfection in another person or fixing the things we think are broken. Instead, Micah Good has penned an enchantingly honest novel about accepting the very pieces of ourselves that make us unique, whole, and undeniably human.
