Lovesick
"I think I'm going to be sick," I mutter, numbingly watching the newlyweds as they seal the deal of being legally bound. My stomach twists in protest. Kehlani Moore is not your typical seventeen-year-old. She hated the idea of love. Maybe not all love-she still believed in the kind her dad had for her and her brother, Brock-but romantic love? That was a different story. Her mother had left their family without a real reason, simply claiming she didn't feel like she was in the right place. That had been the first blow. Her last relationship had been the second. It all added up to the conclusion that love was a game, one she refused to play anymore. She's come to the grand conclusion that she better start collecting her cats like yesterday. On a summer trip to visit her grandmother, Kehlani and her best friend end up crashing a wedding-thanks to a mischievous suggestion from her nan. There, she unexpectedly crosses paths with someone she hasn't seen in two years. A reckless, but undeniably gorgeous decision standing in front of her once again-this time, saving her from being kicked out. But when the same guy moves in next door just a week later, Kehlani finds herself in deeper waters than she ever anticipated.
