Paige Gregory just wants a drama-free senior year. But her best friend Alexis has a younger sister, Jordyn, and Jordyn is supposed to be off-limits. That was easier back when Jordyn was the awkward kid with braces. Not anymore. After summer break, she shows up different, confident, gorgeous, and dating the school's star quarterback. Paige doesn't plan on noticing. She doesn't plan on caring. And she definitely doesn't plan on falling for the one girl who could ruin everything. Because getting closer to Jordyn means risking her friendship, her heart, and the fragile balance holding her life together. First loves are messy. Sister's-best-friend crushes are dangerous. But sometimes, running into the wrong person feels exactly right.
