Have a Little Faith in Me, Hardcover

"Saved " meets To All the Boys I've Loved Before in this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy that takes a meaningful look at consent and what it means to give it.

When CeCe's born-again ex-boyfriend dumps her after they have sex, she follows him to Jesus camp in order to win him back. Problem: She knows nothing about Jesus. But her best friend Paul does. He accompanies CeCe to camp, and the plan--God's or CeCe's--goes immediately awry when her ex shows up with a new girlfriend, a True Believer at that.

Scrambling to save face, CeCe ropes Paul into faking a relationship. But as deceptions stack up, she questions whether her ex is really the nice guy he seemed. And what about her strange new feelings for Paul--is this love, lust, or an illusion born of heartbreak? To figure it out, she'll have to confront the reasons she chased her ex to camp in the first place, including the truth about the night she lost her virginity.
