Just Another Dead Boy

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

A high-stakes speculative romance by a multiple award-winning, Carnegie-shortlisted author: They Both Die at the End meets Ali Hazelwood.

DON'T FALL IN LOVE.

That's the only rule.

In this world, everyone knows their death date. If you're rich, you can check in to a resort to have the greatest final few weeks of your life, in five-star luxury.

Regan works at one of these resorts as a "Juliet". Her next client is Jude, who has a week to live. Regan's job is simple: make Jude feel as though he has found true love before he dies.

But when a fake romance starts to become something else, can they take on Fate together - before Jude's death date catches up with them?
