T-minus twenty-eight days until everything returns to normal-but what if Karina no longer wants it to?Ĭounting Down With You will be releasing on May 4th 2021! Though Karina agrees, she can’t help but start counting down the days until her parents come back. But Ace Clyde does everything right-he brings her coffee in the mornings, impresses her friends without trying, and even promises to buy her a dozen books (a week) if she goes along with his fake-dating facade.
Pretending to date him? Out of the question. Tutoring the school’s resident bad boy was already crossing a line. Instead, one simple lie unravels everything. When her parents go abroad to Bangladesh for four weeks, Karina expects some peace and quiet. Keep her head down, get through high school without a fuss, and follow her parents’ rules-even if it means sacrificing her dreams. How do you make one month last a lifetime? In this sparkling and romantic YA debut, a reserved Bangladeshi teenager has twenty-eight days to make the biggest decision of her life after agreeing to fake date her school’s resident bad boy.

When Tashie visited us in May for Asian Heritage Month and talked about how writing Counting Down With You was a love letter to her Bangladeshi culture and identity, I knew that Counting Down With You would be a book to keep on my radar.įast forward to just a month ago, when Tashie asked me whether I would help her reveal the cover for her debut, I screamed in excitement – I believe in this book so much and am so excited to read it, and it is such an honour to show you all the book cover for Counting Down With You and share an exclusive excerpt from the book!Ĭounting Down With You is a young adult contemporary romance featuring a Bangladeshi-Muslim teen who gets roped into a fake dating façade with her ‘bad boy’ classmate.
