Fifteen-year-old Alison Holland dreams of becoming a professional musician.

But lately, she's starting to wonder how it would feel to go to a party as someone's girlfriend instead of the keyboard player.

He seems to really get her—to understand her dreams and ambitions. But is he more interested in his camera than in romance? A book for anyone who has ever felt like they're different, He Loves Me Not is about fitting in and branching out . . . and being loved for who you are.
