Flynn and Amos have been avoiding each other for nearly six months. They've always been the best of friends as they looked out and cared for their younger stepsister Poppy. However, a growing crush by each of them on the other has made things incredibly awkward and has sent Amos running away to boarding school. Christmas vacation will be the first time they spend any time together. When Poppy reveals a huge secret while on a layover in LA, Flynn and Amos decide it's time to take a break and stay in LA with Poppy. Now they're on the run while trying to figure out what to do next . . .
It seems that the stepsiblings falling in love has been a common story plot lately in teen books. I enjoyed this one as it told the story from both Amos and Poppy's point of view as well as Poppy's. I also liked that while the plot was not realistic at all that the final resolution was much more realistic than many books of this genre. I would definitely recommend this to teens wanting romance or family stories.
