Evie Thomas doesn't believe in love anymore. Especially after the strangest thing occurs one otherwise ordinary afternoon: She witnesses a couple kiss and is overcome with a vision of how their romance began... and how it will end. After all, even the greatest love stories end with a broken heart, eventually.
As Evie tries to understand why this is happening, she finds herself at La Brea Dance Studio, learning to waltz, fox-trot, and tango with a boy named X. X is everything that Evie is not: adventurous, passionate, daring. His philosophy is to say yes to everything — including entering a ballroom dance competition with a girl he's only just met.
Falling for X is definitely not what Evie had in mind. If her visions of heartbreak have taught her anything, it's that no one escapes love unscathed. But as she and X dance around and toward each other, Evie is forced to question all she thought she knew about life and love. In the end, is love worth the risk? This romantic page-turner from the author of Everything, Everything and The Sun is Also a Star asks what you would do if you could see your own romantic future — or thought you could.
"Evie is guarded and careful while X is passionate and intrepid; both are likable characters whom readers will instantly love.... The elements of fabulism deliver an unexpected twist, presenting the question of whether love is worth the pain of loss. A remarkable, irresistible love story that will linger long after readers turn the final page." — Kirkus Reviews
