A teen rock star returns home to Minnesota and finds himself falling
for a local farm girl in this electric YA romance
Seventeen-year-old Gabe's life is a mess. His debut album--produced by
his rock star dad--made him an overnight sensation, but his second album
tanked, he just got dumped by his on-again, off-again girlfriend, and
he's desperate to come up with the money he needs to fix a major
screwup. The only place he can be free from the paparazzi and rumors is
the family farm--the farm that seventeen-year-old Juniper's family has
managed since before she was born. When Juniper learns that Gabe's about
to inherit the farm, she worries that he'll sell it. She comes up with a
plan to get close to him and stop that from happening. At first, Juniper
and Gabe couldn't be more at odds, but the more time they spend with
each other, the more they grow to like each other. Can they set aside
their differences to do what's best for the farm--and each other? Or
will all the drama and secrets tear them apart?
