Yours Hopefully

YA Fiction

After years of endo pain, 15-year-old Emilia ‘Em’ Chambers is used to writing the life she hopes for instead of the one she has. But this time, she’s gone too far, exposing a popular teacher as a predator… with no evidence.

Shunned and banished to the Swiss Alps where she grew up, she is forced to work at the lake boat rental owned by the family of her childhood nemesis.

When a twist of fate brings together the protagonists of her downfall, she has a chance to get it all back. Can she take it without ruining her friendships with the only people who have stood by her no matter what?
