About this book

A regular high school senior falls hard for a girl who seems like the perfect match—except she already has a boyfriend. Then a mysterious, almost too-perfect couple shows up and hints that they know more about the future than they should. As reality begins to bend, he’s pulled into a high-stakes choice where love, fate, and time collide. Fast-paced and twisty, this sci-fi thriller hooks teens who like romance with a mind-bending edge.

Setting: suburban Southern California, early 1990s
