Lola Nolan is a budding costume designer, and for her, the more outrageous, sparkly, and fun the outfit, the better. And everything is pretty perfect in her life (right down to her hot rocker boyfriend) until the Bell twins, Calliope and Cricket, return to the negihborhood. When Cricket, a gifted inventor, steps out from his twin sister's shadow and back into Lola's life, she must finally reconcile a lifetime of feelings for the boy next door.

Anna and the French Kiss
Same author, same swoony love-triangle slow burn with a taken love interest, just relocated to Paris and with messier cheating guilt.
Isla and the happily ever after
Same series' quiet-crush-to-couple romance and clean heat level, but less love-triangle drama and more angst about long-distance futures.
The Summer I Turned Pretty
Same sweet, low-heat YA love triangle with a boy she's known forever, but set over hazy beach summers and more melancholy, less quirky-fun.
P.S. I Still Love You
Another chaste YA triangle where an old flame reappears and complicates things, though it leans more comedic and lighter on pining.
The Elite (The Selection #2)
Keeps the forbidden love triangle and slow burn, but swaps the quirky neighborhood setting for palace intrigue and darker violence.
Fangirl
Another creative, quirky heroine falling for a patient friend; gentler romance with more page time on family struggles and anxiety.
