Three best friends. One matchmaking site. Enough crushes, secrets, and disastrous dates to wreck the school year—or make it unforgettable.

At Rosewood School, Holly, Mads, and Lina have a brilliant idea: turn a class project into The Dating Game, a matchmaking website packed with personal ads, quizzes, gossip, and very questionable romantic advice. Suddenly, everyone wants a date. Even the terrifyingly dramatic Autumn Nelson.

But playing Cupid is easier than handling your own love life. Holly can’t decide whether sweet, slogan-shirt-loving Rob is really “it.” Mads is trying to create an Art Fair masterpiece without embarrassing herself in front of gorgeous senior Sean—or intriguing artist Stephen. And Lina has a secret crush on her teacher that becomes much messier when she starts emailing him under a fake name.

With karaoke meltdowns, swim-team sparks, art-show chaos, and a blog that can ruin anyone’s reputation before lunch, the girls are about to learn that romance is never as simple as a quiz result.

Bright, funny, and full of high school romance, this teen fiction treat will suit readers who enjoy Gossip Girl and sharp, swoony humor.
