*The highly anticipated sequel to My Life with the Walter Boys*, the internationally bestselling YA romance novel that inspired the Netflix series!

Jackie Howard returns to the boy who has her heart, the family she loves, and the choice she must make.**

Jackie is back on the Walter ranch after a summer in New York. She needed space - and got it. But she doesn't know where things stand with her and Cole Walter after that goodbye kiss. Over the summer, she stopped texting him.

But she never stopped thinking about him.

Still, with Cole living off in town to work at Tony's garage before he heads off to college, Jackie thinks it'll be easy to avoid him - only to find that when she sees him face to face at last, it's, well...impossible to resist him.

Things are getting complicated: he's the boy she can't get off her mind, and the Walters have become the family she loves and needs. How can Jackie move forward when she's afraid of taking the next step?

*This heartfelt follow-up to the bestselling My Life with the Walter Boys* promises a sweet YA romance that captures the beauty of the found family dynamic and the complexities of coming of age.
