Ally Queen is feeling more alone than ever. Forced to move miles away from her closest friend, their deep and meaningfuls have been reduced to sporadic and unsatisfying texts.  

And Ally desperately needs a friend to confide in. Her mum is unwell, and the move to the country – which was meant to help things – seems to have made everything worse. On top of this, Ally is faced with the hardest challenge of all: starting over at a new school. 

As she struggles to come to terms with her new reality, Ally meets Rel, the annoying boy next door. But what starts as an infuriating addition to her troubles might just turn out to be the change in perspective she needs most.
