Description
Dumplin' meets Imogen, Obviously in this coming-of-age YA sapphic romance about the messy road to finding yourself-even if it means pretending to be someone else.
Kara isn't everyone's idea of the perfect debutante--but that doesn't stop her from dreaming of being one. So when her family questions whether she's "right" for the program, Kara is more determined than ever to prove that a fat girl can be a debutante, too. She'll be the picture of grace, stun in her poofy white dress, and show off her hot new boyfriend Luke as her escort.
There's just one problem: Luke doesn't exist.
Enter Naomi, the brooding new girl at school, who offers to transform herself into Luke for deb season. Soon Kara is juggling etiquette lessons, lavish parties, waltzes, and an increasingly complicated web of lies, all while trying to convince everyone that she and "Luke" are the perfect couple. But things gets messy when Kara starts falling for the girl playing her boyfriend. And as fake kisses lead to real feelings, Kara will have to decide how far she's willing to go to prove she can act just like a lady.
The perfect book for:
-Fans of slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance
-Readers looking for fat-positive representation
-Queer joy
