Finding Mr. Brightside

She didnÆt expect her silver lining to be wearing gray sweatpants. Abram and Juliette know each other. They've lived down the street from each other their whole lives. But they don't really know each otherùat least, not until Juliette's mom and Abram's dad have a torrid affair that culminates in a deadly car crash. Sharing the same subdivision is uncomfortable, to say the least. They don't speak. Fast-forward to the neighborhood pharmacy, a year later. Abram decides to say hello. Then he decides to invite Juliette to Taco Bell. To her surprise as well as his, she agrees. And the real love story begins.
