Her Good Side

Narrado por: Marcella Cox, Daniel K. Isaac

**A New York Times Best Romance Book of the Year**

A swoony, heart-melting YA romance from beloved author Rebekah Weatherspoon about two awkward teens who decide to practice dating in order to be good at the real thing. Perfect for fans of Nicola Yoon and Jenny Han.

Sixteen-year-old Bethany Greene, though confident and self-assured, is what they call a late-bloomer. She’s never had a boyfriend, date, or first kiss. She’s determined to change that but after her crush turns her down cold for Homecoming—declaring her too inexperienced—and all her back-up ideas fall through, she cautiously agrees to go with her best friend’s boyfriend Jacob. A platonic date is better than no date, right? Until her friend breaks up with said boyfriend.

Dumped twice in just two months, Jacob Yeun wonders if he’s the problem. After years hiding behind his camera and a shocking summer glow up, he wasn’t quite ready for all the attention or to be someone’s boyfriend. There are no guides for his particular circumstances, or for taking your ex’s best friend to the dance.

Why not make the best of an awkward situation? Bethany and Jacob decide to fake date for practice, building their confidence in matters of the heart.

And it works—guys are finally noticing Bethany. But things get complicated as their kissing sessions—for research of course!—start to feel real. This arrangement was supposed to help them in dating other people, but what if their perfect match is right in front of them?

V cute

I like how cute this story is and how she really goes in depth with their personality. it's cute and fresh 😍

I am so glad i gave this a chance

If you are looking for something short and cute this is it!
I an usually not a YA girlly but this was really cute! I really resonated with the fl.

Love, basketball and sandwiches

Loved the 'we're only faking it' to 'uh-oh I caught feelings' storyline. What was also central was Bethany's feelings about basketball and the importance of sandwiches. A quick, feel good story. I appreciated the separate voices for the main characters. It really helped bring the story to life.

I was surprised how sophisticated yet youthful and relatable this book was.

I'm just waiting for a sequel. I love the courage that Jacob had to love Bethany and show her a new perception of herself.

Absolutely adorable

This book was a much needed break from the more mature listenings I've been doing. Thank you.
