To boost her college applications, seventeen-year-old Eloise, a loner girl struggling with her mental health, volunteers at a senior support center where she meets a dynamic elderly woman and a perpetually cheerful boy who challenge her to step out of her comfort zone.
Eloise Deane is the worst and doesn't care who knows it. She's grumpy, prefers to be alone, and is just slogging through senior year with one goal: get accepted to USC and move to California. So when her guidance counselor drops the bombshell that to score a scholarship she'll desperately need, her applications require volunteer hours, Eloise is up for the challenge -- until she's paired with LifeCare, a volunteer agency that offers social support to lonely seniors through phone calls and visits. Basically, it's a total nightmare for Eloise's anxiety. Eloise realizes she's made a huge mistake -- especially when she's paired with Austin, the fellow volunteer who's the sunshine to her cloudy day. But as Eloise and Austin work together to keep Marianne Landis -- the mysterious former front woman of the 1970's band the Laundromats -- company, something strange happens. She actually... likes Marianne and Austin? Eloise isn't sure what to do with that, especially when her feelings toward Austin begin to blur into more-than-friends territory. and when ex-girlfriends, long-buried wounds, and insecurities reappear, Eloise will have a choice to make: go all in with Marianne and Austin, or get out before she gets hurt.
Ages 14 and up.
