Nessa Byrne has always been the good girl. At 15, she's known for following the rules, keeping her head down, and never giving anyone a reason to talk. Sweet, steady, and impossible to fault, Nessa has built her life on control, on being the opposite of her older brother Flynn, whose name seems to live permanently on detention slips and whispered gossip around Tommen College. But beneath the neat uniforms and quiet smiles, Nessa is bored out of her mind. When she moves to Ballylaggin to join Flynn at Tommen, she tells herself nothing will change. She'll make the team, keep her grades up, and stay far away from the kind of chaos that seems to follow him and his friends everywhere. Especially Tadhg Lynch. Loud, reckless, and impossible to ignore, Tadhg is everything Nessa can't stand, and everything she learned the hard way not to want. A year ago, she was just another girl watching him from the sidelines. Now, she can't think of anything worse than being noticed by him. But Tommen has a way of blurring lines. Between good and reckless. Between control and curiosity. Between who you are-and who you might be if you let yourself slip, just for a second. And when one night changes everything, Nessa finds herself caught in the orbit of a boy she swore she'd never get close to. Because Tadhg Lynch doesn't follow rules. And for the first time in her life, Nessa Byrne isn't sure she wants to either.
