About This Book
The soft click of a camera shutter echoes as the world freezes for a moment. I can’t help but notice the warmth spreading across my cheeks whenever Flynn walks by—my sister’s boyfriend, and somehow, he feels different when he’s in my viewfinder. It’s a tangle of feelings I never expected, and it’s about to get complicated.
