Two Way Street by Lauren Barnholdt

Jordan and Courtney are the unexpected couple in their senior year of high school. Despite their different personalities, everything works. With young love in the air, they both decide to go to the same college. Then, the problems start. A few days before they leave for orientation, Jordan finds a new girl over the internet and dumps Courtney who still reluctantly travels to orientation with him. As they get to the college, Courtney acts like she doesn't care about the current situation. Jordan, on the other hand, begins missing Courtney. There is just one reason for his going through with the breakup, and he can't tell her anything about it.

This novel is very relatable to the teenage years. Short relationships, heart breaks, and secrets relay Barnholdt's theme, showing teens that their problems are not unique.
