**FAIR WARNING: YOU WILL HAVE TO BE PATIENT WITH CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, BUT IT IS THERE, AND WORTH THE READ. IF YOU ARE OVERLY SENSITIVE, DO NOT READ THIS BOOK* Logan Pierce and Noah Locke are sworn enemies. Both at the top of their class, holding themselves to the highest standards; both captains of their volleyball teams, Logan as the girls captain, Noah as the boys; and both constantly playing seemingly harmless pranks to get back at one another. Or, at least, they're usually harmless... If one thing is true, Noah Locke and Logan Pierce are not friends. But does that mean they could never be friends? Or transcend their title as enemies? Logan might take things too far sometimes, but there's a reason behind the angry front she puts on, and in order to get behind it, someone needs to show her that there's more to life than being the best at everything. Cue Noah Locke. When the two volleyball teams are sent away to a team bonding camp for a week over Fall break, Logan and Noah must learn to get along for the sake of their teams. Partnered up and made to do activities together and bond, the goal is for Noah and Logan to stop this ongoing feud. And when something happens at the bonding camp that brings Logan's vulnerable side up to bat, Noah is the one who has to bring her back. While Logan and Noah explore something other than hatred for one another, there are secrets and people who could be working in toll to bring them apart. But will they be able to transcend those factors and stop fighting for once? Or were they destined to be enemies forever? "Better Than You" challenges the idea that enemies have to stay enemies forever, and proves that if you don't run away from love, you may just find where you were meant to be.

"He looked like an angel. Not like those people who call their lovers angel because they wanna be sweet, but in a way where if I met God today, Ryder, holy and good, would be standing right there. By God's right-hand side, obliged to give me a tender kiss. It's quite funny though, Ryder can never be holy." Aiko, the second child, has sealed the most important deal of her life. To be the next heir of the Rockefeller empire, Aiko has to complete the ten difficult tasks her brother, the supposed-heir, wrote on a leather-bound notebook and return it to him with proof before her graduation. Including a task of making a certain rich boy fall deeply in love with her. In Venisde Academy, she was a girl with a bleeding crevice tucked in her mind to which all hope for some sort of blithe burned to ice. But she could thank it, she would've been much more timid, if not for Zachary Vildan, until the boy left without a word one morning. Unmistakably, wordlessly, severing all ties with the girl. Every single thing was checked off on her list, yet for the past 2 years, she's been stuck on the tenth. 10) Make Ryder Peterson fall for you. It was the most difficult one of all, and approaching her senior year, she has lost all hope of Ryder ever falling for her. Just as she was about to give up on an empire that she once dreamed she would have in her hands, one night of chaos filled with mafias, blades, and four of the most powerful rich boys of Venisde Academy promising a contract with her would make her lost dreams reappear and tumble back onto her fast as she could ever imagine it to be.
