Music to Play on a First Date by Ali NovakMy latest YA novel, The Heartbreakers, begins with Stella Samuel, a girl with a passion for photography. Stella’s sister Cara has non-Hodgkin lymphoma, so in order to give her the best birthday present ever, Stella goes on a road trip to get an autographed CD from Cara’s favorite band the Heartbreakers. Before the signing session, Stella meets a cute stranger at Starbucks. Only when she is standing in line for an autograph does Stella realize the boy she was flirting with is actually Oliver Perry, lead singer of the band.At first Stella finds Oliver pretentious, but after spending a day with him, her tune changes—hidden behind his rockstar attitude is a dorky guy who is quite endearing. Although she likes him, Stella knows she’ll never see Oliver again; he’s a famous musician traveling the world.

About the book:
Stella will
do anything for her sick sister, Cara—even stand in line for an autographed Heartbreakers CD…for
four hours. She’s totally winning best birthday gift this year. At least she
met a cute boy with soft brown hair and gorgeous blue eyes while getting her
caffeine fix. Too bad she’ll never see him again.
Except,
Stella’s life has suddenly turned into a cheesy love song. Because Starbucks
Boy is Oliver Perry – lead singer for the Heartbreakers. And even after
she calls his music crap, Oliver still gives Stella his phone number. And
whispers quotes from her favorite Disney movie in her ear. OMG, what is her
life?
But how can
Stella even think about being with Oliver – dating and laughing and pulling
pranks with the band – when her sister could be dying of cancer?
