The 7 Symptoms of a Broken Heart Phoebe J Aubrey

Her best friend doesn't know it. Her ex boyfriend never found out. In fact, she hasn't fully realized it herself. What truly broke the heart of Dusty Jones remains her best-kept secret. In 7 Symptoms of a Broken Heart, it takes Sam Frayne, a haphazard foreigner, to crash through Dusty's secrets and self-denial. After an unexpected late night encounter with Sam at the local liquor store, her buried pains begin to be unearthed. And to her unending irritation, this Sam kid won't stop digging at them. As Sam helps clarify the true cause of her broken heart, Dusty's life begins to shatter in a series of humorous and tragic events, from claw machine competitions to a brush with homelessness. Finally, a devastating car accident seems to shake her belief in everyone--turns out, family, Sam, God, and even Dusty herself aren't who she thinks they are. As she pieces her heart (and her life) back together, she finds that maybe that's not such a bad thing after all.
