Only Mostly Devastated by Sophie Gonzales

He's a varsity basketball star, a closeted one. Ghosted, Ollie starts senior year at a new school, makes friends, comes out (he's been out for years, but now he has to do it again), and realizes that Will goes to the same school.

But Ollie's relationship with Will was great, and when Ollie's Californian family stays in North Carolina to help his sick aunt, he hopes that the fling can continue if only Will would text him back. Summers end, and with them summer flings. Ollie would have to be an idiot to trust him with it again. The last time he gave Will his heart, Will handed it back to him trampled and battered. But then Will starts “coincidentally” popping up in every area of Ollie’s life, from music class to the lunch table, and Ollie finds his resolve weakening. Ollie has no intention of pining after a guy who clearly isn’t ready for a relationship, especially since this new, bro-y jock version of Will seems to go from hot to cold every other week. This Will is a class clown, closeted-and, to be honest, a bit of a jerk. Which he minds a little less when he realizes it’s the same school Will goes to…except Ollie finds that the sweet, comfortably queer guy he knew from summer isn’t the same one attending Collinswood High.

Now Ollie is one prince short of his fairytale ending, and to complicate the fairytale further, a family emergency sees Ollie uprooted and enrolled at a new school across the country.

Will Tavares is the dream summer fling-he’s fun, affectionate, kind-but just when Ollie thinks he’s found his Happily Ever After, summer vacation ends and Will stops texting Ollie back. I couldn't put it down.” - New York Times–bestselling author Sandhya Menon “A delightful, heartwarming, heartrending story about family, love, friendship, and living your most authentic life. “ Only Mostly Devastated is the kind of book I wish existed when my kids were younger-a charming, funny, laugh-out-loud teen romance that reminds all readers love comes in a multitude of flavors, and they are ALL sweet.” -Jodi Picoult, New York Times–bestselling author of Small Great Things and A Spark of Light
