This is a prequel to Always the New Girl – and it's highly recommended you start there, and first get to know Sarah Redmond as she begins her junior year at Sierra Vista High School.

Because in Binding Off, you get to head back to eighth grade.

Cringing yet?

Well Sarah Redmond was, because being thirteen and unpopular was hard enough – then her mom got them kicked out of yet another boyfriend's house.

And what this meant was they'd have no choice but to go live with her grandma again.

But Sarah's been uprooted before, moving around is just another part of her less-than-typical life up to this point. And it all seems worth it this time around after she meets Mateo at her new school.

But is Sarah truly ready for where this relationship could lead?

Kudos for the book:

Binding Off was a Finalist in the 2023 Next Generation Indie Book Awards, Novella
