Description:

It isn’t that Scarlett Landry doesn’t believe in love; her parents’ relationship is perfect, after all. It’s just that she doesn’t think she should be forced to celebrate it. Forced to listen to terrible poetry and watch Valentine’s Day roses being distributed to everyone around her at school. If there is a relationship status that deserves its own holiday, it’s singlehood. So she enlists the help of her best friend, Jack Bowman, to throw a party for all the lonely hearts of their high school. Scarlett has known Jack for years. He’s fun and nerdy and smart and will make the perfect co-host. There are two problems. One: the king and queen of school already throw a party on Valentine’s Day—have for the last few years—and they are not fans of being dethroned. Two: when you become known for throwing a party to celebrate singles, you probably shouldn’t fall in love. This fun, flirty YA contemporary romance novella takes place over four Valentine’s Days. It follows the ups and downs of friendship, family, and love.
