Then a new student shows up at school--a boy named Aubrey with fiery red hair and a smile that won't quit. Jenae can't figure out why he keeps popping up everywhere she goes. The more she tries to push him away, the more he seems determined to be her friend. Despite herself, Jenae starts getting used to having him around.

Aubrey is desperate to win and earn a coveted spot on the debate team.

She ditches her razors, cancels her waxing appointments, and sets a debate resolution that she will go all in to defend: 'This House Believes That TJ Powar can be her hairy self, and still be beautiful.' Only, as she sets about proving her point, she starts to seriously doubt anyone could care about her just the way she is--even when the infuriating boy from a rival debate team seems determined to prove otherwise. As her carefully crafted sense of self begins to crumble, TJ realizes that winning this debate may cost her far more than the space between her eyebrows. And that the hardest judge to convince of her arguments might just be herself"--Jacket flap.
