The Last Special Thing (Launch Pickup + Signed Copy)

$19.99

Amelia Cox has lived a charmed life of open credit cards, little parental oversight, and the perfect future mapped out for her. That is, until she gets unexpectedly dumped by her high school sweetheart right before they graduate. Now, with her plans in disarray, she's determined to have an unforgettable summer before she begins college at UCLA. 

When Amelia meets Art Anderson, a charming chaos junkie whose bedroom has only a drumset and an air mattress, she believes she’s found the right person to give her an adventure. Being with Art is intoxicating, and with late nights, personalized playlists, and effortless connection, Amelia knows their relationship is something special. Art tests every boundary she has set for herself. As they embark on a summer of doing drugs and breaking laws, the line between adventure and destruction becomes razor thin. Amelia must choose between the privileged life she had planned and the guy who makes her heart race, for better or for worse.

Book Launch Package – $19.99

“I read The Last Special Thing last month and still find myself thinking about the characters. It had the perfect mix of romance and teenage angst. Alyssa did a great job putting the reader into the moment, you can almost feel the salt water on your skin.”
