Wish You Weren't Here

Two childhood rivals have survived so far by keeping their distance from each other, but that distance shrinks to nada-ziltch-nothing when they become cabinmates at a sleepaway camp in this flirty rivals-to-lovers sapphic romance.

“A masterclass of a sapphic rom-com. Filled with hate-to-love perfection, swoony moments, and off-the-charts chemistry.”—Rachael Lippincott, #1 New York Times bestselling author of She Gets the Girl

“Radiating with cozy nostalgia, sharp wit, and a heart-melting slow-burn romance, Wish You Weren’t Here is an inescapable page-turner.”—Julian Winters, award-winning author of Right Where I Left You

Juliette doesn't hate Priya Pendley.

At least, not in the way teen movies say she should hate the hot popular girl. They don’t do catfights, love triangles, or betrayal. To survive their intertwined small-town lives, they’ve agreed to a truce. They complete group projects without fighting, never gossip to mutual friends, and stand on opposite sides of photos so it’s easy to crop each other out.

Priya seems to have everything during the school year—social media stardom, the handsome track-captain boyfriend, and millions of adoring fans—and Juliette is at peace with that. Because Juliette has the summer and the one place she never feels like “too much”: Fogridge Sleepaway Camp.

But her hopes for a few Priya-free weeks are shattered when her rival shows up at Fogridge on move-in day . . . as her cabinmate, no less. Juliette is determined to enjoy her final summer, even if it means (gag) tolerating her childhood rival, but everything that can go wrong does.

If Juliette can’t find something to like about her situation—and about Priya—she risks hating the only home she’s ever had, right before she says goodbye to it forever.
