Hey #editors —is this your vibe?
Briar and Alice don't quite know what to do with each other. Kiss? Shove each other in the lake? Secret third thing?
#QueerParentTrap #NewAdult #Romance

Alice lunged forward with a splash. “You don’t get to act like this isn’t confusing! One second you hate me—”

“I do hate you.”

“You helped me today.”

“I regretted it instantly.”

“You looked at my mouth!”

Alice is the good twin. The perfect twin. The "I have it all together and I'm fine" twin.
So what is she doing at a summer internship, pretending to be her sister, falling for the grouchy non-binary rival with a giant-ass chip on their shoulder?

I'm having too much fun with this book. I'm shoving all my former-GATE baby trauma into Alice. And she's not okay, y'all.

Much like the counterfeit t-rex fossil towering over her,
Alice was having some major imposter syndrome at this not quite rave.

PARENT TRAP-ish but 🏳️‍🌈
