"Rom-com perfection." -Rachael Lippincott, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Five Feet Apart
New from Eric Smith comes a delightful YA rom-com about two teens caught in the middle of their families' orchestrated rivalry between their Philly cheesesteak food trucks.
All's fair in love and (food truck) war.
Everyone knows Jordan Plazas and Cindy Ortiz hate each other.
According to many viral videos of their public shouting matches, the Plazas and Ortiz families have a well-known food truck rivalry. Jordan and Cindy have spent all of high school making cheesesteaks and slinging insults at each other across their shared Philadelphia street.
But the truth? They're in love, and it's all just an act for the tourists.
When the fake feud lands them a reality tv show pilot, Jordan and Cindy find themselves having to lie on a much bigger scale. Trapped between pursuing their dreams or their love, can they find a way to have their cheesesteak and eat it too?

Reviews
"Joyful, thoughtful, and real. A treat of a book!" -Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling authors of The Unhoneymooners
"With or Without You is rom-com perfection. The stakes are high. The romance is steamier than a food truck in the middle of summer. And the story will have you asking 'who's cutting onions?' Youse gotta read this one." -Rachael Lippincott, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Five Feet Apart
"With or Without You is as warm, filling, and comforting as a Philly cheesesteak sandwich. The adorable fake rivalry romance and fun reality show premise will keep you turning the pages. I couldn't put it down! Warning: do not read this hungry." -Gloria Chao, author of When You Wish Upon a Lantern and Rent a Boyfriend
Praise for You Can Go Your Own Way
"You Can Go Your Own Way is both a sweetly charming love story and a moving exploration of navigating your way through grief. It's a tricky balance, but Eric Smith's writing deftly finds its way straight to the emotional core of his characters and leaves the reader with a lasting sense of hope."-Nicola Yoon, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Everything, Everything and The Sun Is Also a Star
"Eric Smith's You Can Go Your Own Way is a big-hearted charmer of a book! Brimming with wintry coziness, heady nostalgia, and wholly loveable characters, this is a story that's as much about finding yourself as it is about finding love. The perfect novel to snuggle up with."-Emily Henry, New York Times bestselling author of Beach Read
"If Fleetwood Mac's Rumours and 10 Things I Hate About You had a baby, you'd get You Can Go Your Own Way, the nerdy, pinball-filled, snowed-in-and-there's-only-one-blanket rom-com of my dreams."-Sam Maggs, author of The Unstoppable Wasp: Built on Hope.
"Eric Smith's You Can Go Your Own Way is a love letter to Philly and pinball machines. It examines grief and the cost of hanging on as Adam Stillwater grapples with the loss of his father and his complicated crush on childhood ex-friend, Whitney. If you love second chances and the hate-to-love trope, you'll adore this book."-Roselle Lim, author of Natalie Tan's Book of Luck and Fortune
"You Can Go Your Own Way hits like the perfect mug of hot cocoa: it's warm and sweet and leaves you wanting second helpings. Someone please lock Eric Smith in a room and don't let him out until he's written ten more rom coms. I want them all!"-Lauren Morrill, author of It's Kind of a Cheesy Love Story
"A bighearted, moving, delightfully quirky story about the ways that life can be surprising, and the people you thought you knew more surprising still. A warm hug of a book."-Kelly Loy Gilbert, author of Picture Us In the Light
Praise for Don't Read the Comments
"Wonderfully geeky and deeply compassionate, Don't Read the Comments is a heartwarming tale of finding your community and following your dreams."-Marieke Nijkamp, #1 New York Times bestselling author of This Is Where it Ends
"Don't Read the Comments is a modern-to-the-minute adventure about rising above expectations of family, class, and social media, to find your true destiny and grab it by the controller."-Whitney Gardner, award-winning author of You're Welcome, Universe
"Don't Read the Comments has so much heart: the kind that makes you fall in love, and the kind that makes your breath short. If you're not already a gamer, you might be after this book. And if you need a little hope, Eric Smith delivers the sunshine."-Olivia A. Cole, author of A Conspiracy of Stars
