    About this audiobook

    A sweet, funny contemporary teen romance for the inner geek in all of us from graphic novelist Faith Erin Hicks.

    Miriam's family should be rich. After all, her grandfather was the co-creator of smash-hit comics series The TomorrowMen. But he sold his rights to the series to his co-creator in the 1960s for practically nothing, and now that's what Miriam has: practically nothing. And practically nothing to look forward to either-how can she afford college when her family can barely keep a roof above their heads? As if she didn't have enough to worry about, Miriam's life gets much more complicated when a cute boy shows up in town . . . and turns out to be the grandson of the man who defrauded Miriam's grandfather, and heir to the TomorrowMen fortune.

    In her endearing debut audiobook, cartoonist Faith Erin Hicks delivers a sensitive and funny Romeo and Juliet tale about modern romance, geek royalty, and what it takes to heal the long-festering scars of the past (Spoiler Alert: love).

      The resemblance new this story and Romeo & Juliet is almost none existent. The families are not at war with each other, sure one ended up rich and the other poor but really this is more of a hate to love story. It was a nice surprise that this book was set in Canada though, as a Canadian finding books set here is always a treat.
