Written by Sophie Jordan

Narrated by Cassandra Morris and Almarie Guerra

Girl Code: Never date a friend’s ex.

Willa Evans has no intention of breaking the code. So what if she’s always secretly loved her next-door neighbor Zach?
As her best friend’s boyfriend, he was always off-limits and it needs to stay that way, even though they just broke up.
Even though every time she turns around he’s there, tempting her …

No keeping secrets from your bestie.

Flor Hidalgo has a lot on her plate: her breakup with Zach, her dad’s new dating life, and her struggling
grades. So why can’t she stop thinking about her hot, know-it-all tutor? At least she’s got Willa, her constant
in the chaos.

Breaking the code breaks friendships.

In this steamy romance, two friends discover that when it comes to love and friendship, some rules are meant to be
broken or—better yet—rewritten.

Reviews for The Me I Meant to Be

[billiebook · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

This needed a lot more pages to reach truly satisfying conclusions for all the character relationships. Dana was not very kind or loving toward Flor and was obviously manipulating Flor's dad, but one brief conversation and Flor thinks Dana's not so bad? Willa's sister Chloe has serious issues (depression and possibly addiction), but she has one conversation with Willa and makes one trip to the grocery store and now everything's going to be okay? I'm not sure if this book was supposed to be about the relationship between Willa and Flor or Willa and Zach or Flor and Grayson because they all felt a little perfunctory and superficial. There were consequences of certain actions that were smoothed over way too easily and quickly. This has the bones of a book that would be enjoyed by fans of Sarah Dessen or Stephanie Perkins or Huntley Fitzpatrick, but none of the depth.
