After recovering from a life-changing injury, a teen girl must
navigate a new job, an ex-best friend, and two surprisingly attractive
coworkers in this "sweet, romantic summer tale" (Kirkus Reviews) for
fans of Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian.
Hannah used to be all about focus, back before she shattered her ankle
and her Olympic dreams in one bad soccer play. These days, she's all
about distraction--anything to keep the painful memories of her recent
past at bay, including the string of bad decisions that landed her at
boarding school for a year.
Enter Bonanza, the local entertainment multiplex and site of Hannah's
summer employment. With its mini golf course, bowling alley, and
arcade--not to mention her hot, flirty coworker Patrick--Bonanza seems
like the perfect way to stay distracted. Until her boss announces the
annual Bonanza tournament, a staff competition that brings her past
Olympic nightmares crashing back into her present.
On top of that, the Bonanza staff includes Brie, the ex-best friend she
cut off last year, and Ethan, her brother's best friend who became
unreasonably attractive in her year away and who accepts her, even
knowing her worst secrets. Under the neon lights of Bonanza, Hannah must
decide whether she can find a way to discover a new self in the midst of
her old life.
