Paper Hearts - Paperback

by Jen Atkinson (Author)

She'd dreamt of him.

Suddenly, signs of her dream come alive all around her, only the real life version contains the mysterious and kissable Finn.At seventeen Esther told herself she was used to being alone-that she liked it even. Which is maybe why moving in with her uncle and his family, who are practically strangers, feels scarier than the reoccurring dream that won't stop bothering her. Soon, she'll be ten hours from the only home she remembers, and the one person she has left in the world-her best friend.

Finn doesn't care about any of that.He's got bigger problems. Being sick and angry never gave him much time to think about anyone else. How could it? He's dealing with smothering parents who are clearly in denial about his life and a body that's trying to give out on him. Why can't everyone just accept what is and let him live the way he wants to?

When Esther and Finn's worlds collide, fact and fiction begin to blur. Signs of Esther's dreams are all around them. For the first time in a long time, Esther doesn't feel like loneliness is her only future, and Finn starts to believe he may have more than video games and just another hang-out night with his friends to live for.

Will Esther's dreams lead them to their saving grace, or will it just be another heartbreak?
