First There Was Forever

By Juliana Romano

Book Overview

Lima and Hailey have always been best friends- Lima shy and sensitive; Hailey funny and free-spirited. But now, Hailey is only interested in partying with the popular kids and pursuing Nate, her disinterested crush. As the two girls drift apart, Lima and Nate grow closer. And before Lima knows what she's feeling, she and Nate do something irreversible. Something that would hurt Hailey . . . if she knew it happened. Lima thinks she's saving her friendship by lying, but she's only buying time. As the secrets stack up, Lima is forced to make a choice between her best friend forever, and the boy who was never meant to be hers. Set against the dreamlike landscape of Los Angeles, Juliana Romano's expressive debut is an absorbing and poignant story about first love, first loss, and the friends that carry us through it all.
