Kiss Date Love Hate is out now, published by the Corgi imprint at Random House Children’s Books.
What if you could change your friends’ lives and loves through the settings of a computer game?
Lex Murphy and her friends have complicated relationships. If only there was a way to avoid all the dating/hating drama…
When Lex fills a cool new computer game with characters based on herself and her classmates, she makes some ‘wishful thinking’ adjustments to the profiles. Finally, everyone can be perfectly matched and happy, at least on screen. Love, Live, Looks – it’s all under Lex’s control in a harmless game.
After all, these changes can’t come true… can they?
