Love isn't always part of the plan . . . the perfect summer romance, soon to be a movie starring Heartstopper's Kit Connor and Pretty Little Liars' Maia Reficco! For Lila Reyes, a summer in England hadn't been on the cards. Certainly not one stuck in the small town of Winchester with a lack of sun and zero Miami flavour. But when Lila meets Orion Maxwell in the local tea shop, her nightmare trip starts to look up. With a bright new future suddenly on the horizon, will Lila leave behind everything she's ever planned and follow her heart?

Highlights "BOLD. 320 Pages Young Adult Fiction, Romance Description About the Book Tell Me Three Things meets Saved! in Erin Hahn's next thrilling contemporary about forgiveness and first love Book Synopsis "BOLD. IMPORTANT. BEAUTIFUL." - Laura Taylor Namey, New York Times bestselling author of A Cuban Girl's Guide to Tea and Tomorrow In Erin Hahn's Never Saw You Coming, sometimes it takes a leap of faith to find yourself. Eighteen-year-old Meg Hennessey just found out her entire childhood was a lie. So instead of taking a gap year before college to find herself, she ends up traveling north to meet what's left of the family she never knew existed - all while questioning the ideals she grew up with. While there, she meets Micah Allen, a former pastor's kid whose dad ended up in prison, leaving Micah with his own complicated relationship with faith. The clock is ticking on his probation hearing and Micah, now 19, feels the pressure to forgive - even when he can't possibly forget. As Meg and Micah grow closer, they are confronted with the heavy flutterings of first love and all the complications it brings. Together, they must navigate the sometimes-painful process of cutting ties with childhood beliefs as they build toward something truer and straight from the heart. "Heartfelt and utterly genuine... I already want to reread it." - Erin A.

This is an important story to be told and Hahn's words resonate with truth and sparkle with her brilliant wit. I already want to reread it." - ERIN A. CRAIG, New York Times bestselling author of Small Favors and House of Salt and Sorrows "This is the purity culture-smashing book I needed as a teen. With clear respect for genuine faith, Hahn eviscerates the Church that emphasizes judgment before love. Never Saw You Coming somehow manages to be both sex-positive and faith-positive, and will be a balm to the bruised souls of so many readers." - JOY McCULLOUGH, author of Blood Water Paint "[A] love letter to the disillusioned youth group kid. And to every reader seeking to explore the ideas and truths separating faith from religion. Bold. Important. Beautiful." - LAURA TAYLOR NAMEY, New York Times bestselling author of A Cuban Girl's Guide to Tea and Tomorrow (A Reese Witherspoon x Hello Sunshine Book Club YA Pick) "Erin Hahn's Never Saw You Coming is a balm of comfort. Readers will fall in love with the refreshing honesty of Meg and Micah, two teens who are heartbreakingly genuine in their struggles as they navigate questioning religion, faith, hypocrisy, and the true meaning of love and forgiveness. With her familiar humor and extraordinary prose, Hahn has created a world in which readers are invited to be still and know that they are more than enough just as they are. No conditions. No exceptions." - ASHLEY SCHUMACHER, author of Amelia Unabridged "[A] gorgeous contemporary that touches on faith and family and the ways others may twist them into something unrecognizable. The love story within is not only immensely sweet, but also serves for both characters as a way to be understood and respected. It's magnificent." - RACHEL STROLLE, Teen Services Coordinator, Glenside Public Library District About the Author ERIN HAHN is the author of You'd Be Mine, More Than Maybe, and Never Saw You Coming.
