Scorching-hot summer. Scorching-hot chemistry. Two teens can't forget they're just friends in this sweet, funny, electrifying romance from New York Times bestselling author Tia Williams--perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Nicola Yoon.
Meet Audre. Junior class president. Debate team captain. Unofficial student therapist. Desperately in need of a good time.
Meet Bash. Mysterious new senior. Everybody's crush. Tall, floppy, great taste in jewelry. King of having a good time.
It's the last day of school at Cheshire Prep, Brooklyn's elite academy--and Audre Mercy-Moore's life is a mess. Her dad cancelled her annual summer visit to his Malibu beach house. Now? She's stuck in a claustrophobic apartment with her mom, stepdad, and one-year-old sister (aka the Goblin Baby).
Under these conditions, she'll never finish writing her self-help book--i.e., the key to winning over Stanford's admissions board.
Cut to Bash Henry! Audre hires him to be her "fun consultant." His job? To help her complete the Experience Challenge--her list of five wild dares designed to give her juicy book material. She'll get inspo; he'll get paid. Everybody wins.
He isn't boyfriend material. And she's not looking for one. Can they stay professional despite their obvious connection?
Fun fact: Audre Mercy-Moore first appeared in the New York Times bestseller Seven Days in June and now stars in her own story!

This is a fun and pretty typical YA rom-com! It has some spice and language, so I would rate it as a high school book based on the age and actions of the characters. I didnβt realize this was a companion book to Seven Days in June, which is an adult book. I havenβt read it, but I didnβt need to read it to understand this story.
I really enjoy this reading especially how Audre and Bash was experience being teenagers and developed a strong friendship. It was laid back reading which I enjoy π
I highly recommend reading Seven Days in June before reading this, but you probably could read this as a standalone, it just would lose some character depth for Shane and Eva. I loved this sequel and Tia's characterization of Audre and Bash!
Audre & Bash fall for each other during the summer filled with life altering stories about their pasts. They learn it's better to let go of the past in order to live in the present.
Great book that pulls the full story together!!
