FOR THE GREATEST GOOD
Rural teens seeking water justice must reckon with the dangers of privatization and learn what justice truly means
(Page Street YA, June 2026)
After years of poor water quality, Gavin fears his town is one burst pipe away from losing access to safe drinking water forever. The awareness campaign he runs with his boyfriend, Kyler, and best friend, MacKenzie, has gotten them nowhere.
Demoralized, the teens try to find another solution. Gavin’s rich estranged father claims that privatizing their town’s water would get them better infrastructure, and his friend’s company CrispFlow could solve everything if the mayor, MacKenzie’s mother, would give them the bid. Wanting to believe his father, Gavin convinces his friends to help him rig the process in CrispFlow’s favor.
But as they learn more about what privatization would cost, Gavin will question if his father has Gavin and his town’s best interest at heart and what his community truly needs.

Praise for America’s Not-So-Sweetheart:
“Hanson’s debut effectively delves into the seedy underbelly of the reality TV world, including biases in representation.” —Kirkus
“The novel explores thoughtful examinations of public perception, stereotypes, and inclusivity…An engaging, thoughtful take on a morally grey character embarking on a journey to find out who he really is.” —Booklist
“A refreshing take on the romcom recipe, Hanson stuns with the perfect concoction of whip-smart banter, emotional turbulence, and a deliciously messy dynamic through the eyes of a morally gray boy you can’t help but root for—even when he warns you not to.” —Amanda Woody author of They Hate Each Other and Exes & Foes
