“A smart, thoughtful take on a romance, ultimately imparting the value of self-reflection, positive communication, healthy coping skills, and forgiveness.”—BCCB, starred review
“Fans of Elise Bryant won’t want to miss this tale of first love gone awry.”—Booklist
While on a school trip to the Pocono Mountains (in the middle of a storm), high school seniors Zyla Matthews and Kai Johnson disappear together, leaving their friends and family confused. As far as everyone knows, Zyla and Kai have been broken up for months. And honestly? Their break-up hadn’t surprised anyone.
Zyla was a cynic about love. She’d witnessed the dissolution of her parents’ marriage early in life, and it left an indelible impression. Her only aim was going to fashion school abroad.
Until she met Kai.
Kai was a serial monogamist and a hopeless romantic. He’d put a temporary pause on his dating life before senior year to focus on school and getting into his dream HBCU.
Until he met Zyla.
Alternating between the past and the present, we see the love story unfold from both Zyla’s and Kai’s perspectives: how they met while working together at an amusement park, how they fell in love during the school year, and why they ultimately, dramatically, predictably, broke up . . . Or did they?

Kritikerstimmen
“A sweet, funny, and heartfelt story about falling in and out of love, and what happens next.”—School Library Journal, starred review
“Populated by a compassionate, fully fleshed-out cast, variously queer characters, and depictions of loving blended Black families, this joyous novel excels in its heartfelt portrayals of open communication, mental health prioritization, devastating heartbreak, and tender first love.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review
“Explorations of the side characters and their zoomed-out perspectives, along with chapters focused on Kai’s and Zyla’s experiences, demonstrate the unexpected ways human lives are interconnected and how relationships are a culmination of experiences, perceptions, and assumptions. Reminiscent of Nicola Yoon’s works, it’s a smart, thoughtful take on a romance, ultimately imparting the value of self-reflection, positive communication, healthy coping skills, and forgiveness.”—BCCB, starred review
“A first love story with all the feels.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Romantic, heart-stirring and a little mysterious, Zyla & Kai will keep readers guessing until the last chapter.”—BookRiot
“Forest delivers an emotionally mature and reflective contemporary romantic novel with her latest. Hopeless romantics who enjoy angst and self-reflection will relish this story of miscommunication. Fans of Elise Bryant won’t want to miss this tale of first love gone awry.”—Booklist
