It was just another Saturday detention at Shermer High School-until he walked in. Aiden Walker is the new kid with a quiet charm, sharp eyes, and secrets stitched behind every calm breath. Assigned detention for standing up to a teacher, Aiden never expected to find something-or someone-worth the trouble.
Enter John Bender, the bad boy with a smart mouth, a tragic past, and a chip on his shoulder big enough to block the sun. When their worlds collide in that dusty library, sparks fly-not the angry kind, but the kind that slowly burn everything you've ever known about yourself.
As the hours tick on, the connection between them deepens, tangled with stolen glances, sarcasm turned softness, and a slow-blooming tenderness neither of them thought they deserved.
But Saturday ends. And in the harsh light of Monday morning, can something that started in silence survive the noise of real life?
