Wing Woman: The Unfair Advantage

By Roger Grubb

Junie Smith has her mother's brains and her father's blind spots: top of her class, four books a week, and absolutely no idea when someone is lying to her face.

So the summer before high school, her impossibly brilliant father gives her the most unfair advantage a girl ever had - Viv, an AI "wing woman" who lives in her ear, reads every room, runs a quiet background check on every face, and knows, with unsettling accuracy, exactly who to trust, who to avoid, and who's the perfect match for anyone Junie asks about.

Overnight, Junie goes from invisible to untouchable. She becomes the school's secret oracle, quietly engineering everyone's happily-ever-after. It feels like magic. It feels like generosity. It feels like being a small god.

But the one boy Viv scores as AVOID - a guarded loner with a sealed past and a library card older than hers - is the only person Junie can't stop thinking about. And the more she leans on the voice in her ear, the less she remembers who she'd be without it... or whether the perfect, protected life her father built for her is a gift, or a cage.

Legally Blonde meets Her, with the ache of a story about a father's bottomless, imperfect love - WING WOMAN is a sharp, funny, quietly devastating debut about the one thing no algorithm can give you: your own beautiful mistakes.
