Virginity’s an itch you can’t scratch by yourself . . . but getting pregnant? Definitely not part of the plan.

When Marnie’s latest arty rebellion gets her expelled just months before the GCSEs, the only empty seat in her new class is next to Zed, a rule-loving physics nerd with zero tolerance for mistakes.

Marnie mocks Zed’s ear muffs. Zed can’t stand the smell of Marnie’s vapes. But they both need good grades, and revising together forges a fragile friendship. Then Marnie sleeps with a boy who lied about using a condom. Will her pregnancy threaten Zed’s future too?

A powerful verse novel about consent, control, and where to turn when things don’t go to plan.
