Better than in the movies UA

Liz Buxbaum has always believed Wes Bennett was the worst kind of neighbor. From the time they were kids, he was notorious for mischief: leaving frogs in her Barbie Dream House or decapitating garden gnomes to place the heads in her makeshift library. A decade has passed since the gnome incident, but now a new conflict erupts—this time over a parking spot on their street. As Liz enters her final year of school, moments reminiscent of a romantic film seem ever more important to her. Unexpectedly, she realizes she needs Wes’s help because she has long harbored feelings for Michael, her dream boy who just moved back to town and, as fate would have it, befriended Wes. If Liz wants to capture Michael's attention, Wes might be her unexpected ally. Convincing him to join a peculiar plan to create an idyllic, movie-like romantic scene at their graduation with Michael seems nearly impossible. Yet, the question lingers: has time transformed Wes from an irksome prankster into a dependable young man?
