Rodrick Heffley has always been the screw-up older brother - loud music, messy room, failing grades, and zero plans for the future. He's accepted it. Everyone else has too. But when his band's latest practice gets shut down by noise complaints from the military training school down the street, Rodrick doesn't expect to meet Sebastian: disciplined, sharp-edged, and everything Rodrick isn't.
secret late-night hangouts, swapped mixtapes, and quiet conversations under bleachers where neither of them belongs. As Rodrick falls harder for the boy who's supposed to follow orders, he starts questioning the version of himself he's always pretended to be.
But Sebastian has rules to follow, and Rodrick's life is built on breaking them. In a world where both of them are expected to play roles they never chose, how do you hold onto something real?
A story about bad reputations, loud music, soft boys, and falling for the person you least expected.
