Paige finds herself getting more than she bargained for when her best friend's flirty brother crashes at her apartment, stirring up new feelings and a very tempting offer. ***** The last time Paige saw her best friend's younger brother, Cannon, he was a shy and studious teenager. But when he shows up to crash in her spare room, she gets a swift reality check. Now 24, he's tall, muscular and beyond sexy, nothing like the boy in Paige's memory-and more of a temptation than she expected.

Nolan, an unapproachable guy who ignores the existence of all his schoolmates, sleeps in all of his classes. Normally, this wouldn't be Chelsea Arnold's problem-she does her best to pay attention in class and attends gym like a good, normal student. Unfortunately, she just so happens to be his assigned desk partner in many classes. She's frequently forced to wake him in English class and ends up earning the unofficial title of Nolan's Wake-up Alarm-a title that nobody in the entire school covets. The last thing she wants is to interact with him more than she absolutely has to. One day, their gym teacher sends her to bring him back to class, which he always skips for some reason. When she accidentally shines her flashlight in his sleeping face, it triggers a chain of events that gradually intertwines their lives together. It's hard to be a normal student when you start befriending the school oddball. It doesn't help that he has more secrets than the Big Ben has stairs. ----- Complete.
