“A heart-wrenching quest for identity every YA reader will relate to, and a deep dive into the meaning of family." —Ellen Hopkins, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Debut author Dante Medema explores the emotional fallout
after a teenage girl discovers she is the product of an affair. Told through a
series of poems, text messages, and emails, this contemporary YA is perfect for
fans of Gaby Dunn and Allison Raskin.

Seventeen-year-old Cordelia Koenig intended to breeze
through her senior project. While her peers stressed, Cordelia planned to use
the same trace-your-roots genealogy idea her older sister used years prior. And
getting partnered with her longtime crush, Kodiak Jones, is icing on the cake.
All she needs to do is mail in her DNA sample, write about her ancestry
results, and get that easy A.

But when Cordelia’s GeneQuest results reveal that her father
is not the person she thought he was, but a stranger who lives thousands of
miles away, her entire world shatters. Now she isn’t sure of anything—not the
mother who lied, the man she calls Dad, or the girl staring back at her in the
mirror.

If your life began with a lie, how can you ever be sure of
what's true?
