A masterclass of a sapphic rom-com. Filled with hate-to-love perfection, swoony moments, and off-the-charts chemistry. -Rachael Lippincott, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Five Feet Apart and She Gets the Girl

All's fair in love and Color War.

Juliette doesn't hate Priya Pendley. At least, not in the way teen movies say she should hate the hot popular girl. They don't do cat fights, love triangles, or betrayal. To survive their intertwined small town lives, they've agreed to a truce. They complete group projects without fighting, never gossip to mutual friends, and stand on opposite sides of photos, so it's easy to crop each other out.

Priya seems to have everything during the school yearβ€”social media stardom, the handsome track captain boyfriend, and millions of adoring fansβ€”and Juliette is at peace with that. Because Juliette has the summer, and the one place she never feels like "too much"β€”Fogridge Sleepaway Camp.

But her hopes for a few Priya-free weeks are shattered when her rival shows up at Fogridge on move-in day... as her cabinmate, no less. Juliette is determined to enjoy her final summer, even if it means (gag) tolerating her childhood rival, but everything that can go wrong, does.

If Juliette can't find something to like about her situationβ€”and about Priyaβ€”she risks hating the only home she's ever had, right before she says goodbye to it forever.

About the Author

Erin Baldwin was born in the Philippines, raised in Jersey City, NJ, and now lives in Colorado (where, tragically, there is no good pizza or Filipino food). One childhood Christmas morning, she peeled back gold wrapping paper to reveal Just Ella by Margaret Peterson Haddix, and she's been an avid reader and writer ever since. Though her first love is fantasy, these days she's much more interested in finding the magic and whimsy her goofball characters can create in everyday life. Wish You Weren't Here is her debut novel. You can find Erin and her ever-changing carousel of hobbies at erinbwrites.com and on social media as @erinbwrites.
