My youngest baby basset was telling me something about getting extra credit in school. My first thought was to push him over and steal his milk money, but I decided against it. You just shouldn’t try to relive your grammar school glory days. Good times! Anywho, I was thinking about the extra credit thing, and I got a bit jealous. Why can’t we as adults get extra credit? Doesn’t seem fair that we don’t. For example, if I do an extra push-up, I want extra credit that would go towards consequence free chocolate cake. Maybe if I actually fold all the laundry including the last load that I usually leave in the dryer until the next time I do laundry. For that I should get a lot of extra credit. Maybe a glass of consequence free wine. My mind really is stuck on the consequence free food and drink. Maybe I should focus less on earning extra credit, and work on inventing consequence free dessert. I will get back to you all on that one.

4.3 Stars (337 Reviews)
Genre: Romance

FREE for a limited time

Two young do-gooders working to change the world find friendship and maybe more in a cutthroat business, but when the stakes are higher than they ever imagined, will a betrayal bring them together — or ruin everything?

Kellan “Kell” Luview is a new man. He left his tourist-trap small town and his dad’s business behind in rural Maine for a position at an environmental policy think tank in Washington, D.C. More comfortable climbing trees than talking about them, he’s determined to stretch his wings as he builds a new life with an ambitious girlfriend and smart friends who are just as dedicated as he is.

Despite his love for his work and the excitement of D.C., he feels pulled in too many directions when his girlfriend Alissa starts acting weird, his best friend Rachel needs an embarrassing, public rescue, and his mom hints that things are not going well at home in Luview-“Love You”-Maine, where every day is Valentine’s Day.

As a shocking betrayal shakes the very foundation of everything he believes in, Kell must decide who to trust, who to challenge, who needs him most — and figure out fast whether Rachel’s warnings about his girlfriend are credible.

Or yet another tactical maneuver in a city founded on them.

Unraveling the mystery of who to believe pits Kell against Rachel in a battle where the truth is uncertain and hearts are just collateral damage as ambition rules over feelings.

But Kell’s had enough.

More than enough.

Time to decide what kind of man he is — and who to trust.

Love You Wrong is a novel-length prequel (40,000 words), introducing New York Times bestselling romantic comedy author Julia Kent’s new Love You, Maine series. If you love rom coms about friends who are meant for more, deep intrigue, big misunderstandings, tests of loyalty, and small town/big city clashes, then pick up this prequel and try out a new-to-you series.
