There Is No Contest (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798218553135)

Three Teenagers

A Series of Questions

One Curse.

Charlie May, Amelie Henderson, and Oliver Knight have their own struggles-just like any teenager, right? But what if their normal problems are tied to something that won't let go of them, no matter how hard they try?

Amelie Henderson has always carried the weight of her family's expectations. To make matters worse, she's so focused on trying to be perfect for her mother that she's lost sight of her own identity. When her world starts falling apart, Amelie realizes she can't fix herself, so why not try to fix someone else?

Oliver Knight has always been carefree, never concerned with staying on the "right path." But when his unspoken love for his best friend collides with external pressures, Oliver finds himself unable to move forward. He wants to be there for his friends-but does he risk complicating everything by opening up about his feelings?

Charlie May has always appeared to have it all figured out: good friends, a steady job, a future in college. But everything changes when she discovers she's cursed to stay in her town forever. Now, Charlie must choose. Will she start living her own life and break the curse or will she be stuck living someone else's story?

Their lives are tangled together by burdens they can't escape-and only by facing their own curses can they hope to break free.

There Is No Contest explores the supernatural element of a curse and the typical teenage experiences of love, school struggles, and friendship drama.
