Price's dream of becoming a Broadway star. Not her lovable but super introverted dad who
raised Millie alone since she was a baby. Not her drama club rival Oliver who is the very
definition of Simmering Romantic Tension. And not her Millie Moods the feelings of intense
emotion that threaten to overwhelm. Millie needs an ally. And when an accidentally left-open
browser brings Millie to her dad's embarrassingly moody LiveJournal from 2003 Millie knows
just what to do-find her mom. But how can you find a new part of your life and expect it to fit
into your old one without leaving any marks? And why is it that when you go looking for the
past it somehow keeps bringing you back to what you've had all along? PRAISE FOR EMMA LORD:
