From Julie Murphy, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin', comes the first in a two-book origin story of Faith, a groundbreaking, plus-sized superhero from the Valiant Entertainment comics.
Faith Herbert is a pretty regular teen. When she's not hanging out with her two best friends, Matt and Ches, she's volunteering at the local animal shelter or obsessing over the long-running teen drama The Grove.
So far, her senior year has been spent trying to sort out her feelings for her maybe-crush Johnny and making plans to stay close to Grandma Lou after graduation. Of course, there's also that small matter of recently discovering she can fly...
When the fictional world of The Grove crashes into Faith's reality as the show relocates to her town, she can't believe it when TV heroine Dakota Ash takes a romantic interest in her.
But her fandom-fueled daydreams aren't enough to distract Faith from the fact that first animals, then people, have begun to vanish from the town. Only Faith seems able to connect the dots to a new designer drug infiltrating her high school.
But when her investigation puts the people she loves in danger, she will have to confront her hidden past and use her newfound gifts--risking everything to save her friends and beloved town.
Plus don't miss the follow-up, Faith: Greater Heights!
Can a teen fangirl become the hero her town desperately needs?
- Body Positive Hero: Faith Herbert isn't just a fan of heroes--she's about to become one, proving you don't need a specific body type to save the world.
- LGBTQ Romance: A celebrity crush becomes reality when TV star Dakota Ash shows up in town and is interested in more than just an autograph.
- Small Town Mystery: When pets and then people start disappearing, Faith must connect the dots between the vanishings and a dangerous new drug infiltrating her high school.
- Secret Identity: Between crushes and hanging out with her best friends Matt and Ches, Faith has to hide the biggest secret of all: she can fly.
- Fandom Culture: A story that perfectly captures the fangirl experience when the fictional TV show Faith obsesses over, The Grove, begins filming right in her hometown.
