**YALSA Book Award for Best Fiction for Young Adults**
Seventeen-year-old Reyna has spent most of her life at the Plumeria, the magnificent hotel her family owns on the coast of Tobago. But what once seemed like paradise now feels like purgatory. It has been two years since Reyna's mother passed away, and also two years since Aiden, her childhood best friend, her first kiss, her first love, and her first everything, left the island to pursue his musical dreams.
Reyna's friends are planning their futures and moving abroad. Even her father seems ready to move on, leaving her alone to try to keep the Plumeria running.
And it's at this moment that Aiden re-enters her life as a VIP guest at the hotel.
Aiden is now one-third of DJ Bacchanal, the hottest musical group around. While Reyna has stayed exactly where he left her, Aiden has returned to Tobago with his Grammy-nominated group and two beautiful girls from high society in Los Angeles. And maybe he is (or maybe he isn't) dating one of them...
"What a charming debut! It's like the perfect island vacation: light, warm, romantic, with plenty of soul-searching and filled to the brim with love." -Jasmine Guillory, New York Times bestselling author.
