Everything You Want

The critically acclaimed novel about unexpected riches and self-acceptance is now available in paperback!

Eighteen-year-old Emma's trying to survive total humiliation and heartbreak after getting ditched and punched in the face by her (ex) best friend and crush-of-a-lifetime. Now she's struggling with major post-high school stress, a lame social life, and tighter jeans from a few extra anxiety pounds. Then one lucky lotto ticket comes along, and everything changes for the better. Or does it? Now that Emma and her family are fabulously rich, life is a bigger mess than ever before.
