Sloane McKinney feels like a background character in her own life. But this summer will be different, because she's spending it with her childhood best friend, Liam Daniels, in her dream city, Los Angeles. Sure, she's surprised to find that Liam just happens to have had a Hot Guy glow-up since she last saw him, but so what? A little attraction won't ruin her plans for their fun-and completely platonic-reunion.

What might, however, is that Liam has been roped into working for his producer dad's new teen reality dating show, Aspen Woods's Future Leading Lady. It turns out the show is one contestant short . . . and Sloane is the perfect last-minute addition.

But it's behind the scenes where the drama really picks up. Because wanting to kiss your best friend? That's a plot twist neither Sloane nor Liam ever saw coming.

Two childhood best friends reunite in L.A. the summer before senior year-but when one of them ends up starring on a teen reality dating show, their feelings for each other get complicated. Perfect for fans of friends-to-lovers rom-coms and The Bachelor!

Reviews for Not Here to Stay Friends

Praise for Love from Scratch One of USA Today's Best April Rom-Coms One of Goodreads' 54 Buzzy YA Books for Spring A delectable rom-com full of enemies-to-lovers romance and baking adventures that will make your mouth water. -PopSugar Sweet and satisfying. I loved the witty banter, the chemistry, and the way the characters felt like they could walk off the page. -Jenna Evans Welch, New York Times bestselling author of Love & Gelato This story was the perfect recipe for romance: a heaping cup of flirty banter, a generous spoonful of humor, a handful of swoon, and a dash of angst. I savored every moment of it. Funny, charming, flirty, and fun! -Kasie West, author of Sunkissed A sweet and savory delight. From the crackling rivals-to-lovers tension to the pitch-perfect Seattle setting to the mouthwatering descriptions of food-I devoured it all. Kaitlyn Hill is a bold, exuberant new voice in YA. -Rachel Lynn Solomon, author of Today Tonight Tomorrow A deliciously funny and swoon-worthy nom-com . . . Reese and Benny's chemistry sizzles in and out of the kitchen. -Auriane Desombre, author of I Think I Love You A swoonworthy cinnamon roll romance that doesn't shy away from the very real struggle of going viral. Love From Scratch is a total delight. -Nina Moreno, author of Don't Date Rosa Santos Top notch... This delicious romance is great for summer and a highly recommended purchase. -School Library Journal The push and pull of the rivals' will-they, won't-they tension is paired with Reese's feminist commentary, which readers will likely pump their fists in support of. -Kirkus Reviews
