Gemma's best friend is gone to camp for the summer and Gemma is hanging out at the beach when a ton of kids from school show up blocking her in. She tries to leave, but gets roped back in by her long time crush Beau Booker, who tells her just to pretend they are together. As she and Beau head back to the beach he ends up knocking himself out in the water and she is the only one to see it. She saves him, but he is put into a medically induced coma for his brain swelling to go down. Everyone now assumes she is his girlfriend and due to her social anxiety she just can't correct anyone.
Fun book. Reminded me of the movie While You Were Sleeping, but for teenagers. Clean romance with some plot twists. Gemma is raised by her dad, Beau's brother has some "issues" and Gemma learns to deal with her anxiety and make some friends.
