Nothing Like the Movies By Lynn Painter

In this delightful follow-up to Better Than the Movies, life after the perfect ending isn't quite as simple as the credits rolling. Now officially together, Wes and Liz are navigating their first year of college and a long-distance relationship that’s testing their storybook romance. Liz is struggling to write her next chapter in film school, while Wes is focused on pre-med, and their carefully plotted futures are starting to feel like different genres. When a charismatic new film student enters Liz's world and an old flame reappears in Wes's, they’re forced to question if their love is strong enough to survive the real world—which, as it turns out, is nothing like the movies. A charming, heartfelt story about growing up, holding on, and writing your own love story, even when the plot twists aren’t what you expected.
