Beatrice (Bea) Szabo is turning into a robot. Her professor father’s perpetual wanderings from university to university have left her friendships in the lurch. And now, to make matters worse, there’s something not-so-swell going on with her parents’ marriage. A tin heart—that’s what Bea decides she needs. Because better to feel nothing than to be feeling this, right? Things change in a heartbeat, though, when Bea meets outcast Jonah Tate and is sucked into an intense hot-and-cold relationship with one of the very best—and very worst—friends she’s ever had. One thing’s for sure: Friendship with Jonah is a path to heartache and heartbreak, but it may also be the only way for Bea to find out if she has a real heart after all.
