They started as strangers. Became inseparable. And ended up as something neither of them could explain.
Delilah Carter -Black and Asian, fiercely creative, but guarded-wants to survive freshman year with her sketchbook, her music, and her walls intact.
Sophia Rivera -Mexican, effortlessly charming, and hiding the weight of everyone's expectations-is desperate to find someone who truly sees her beneath the perfection.
When a seat in homeroom and a group project unexpectedly bring them together, their connection is undeniable. What starts as a casual friendship turns into late-night phone calls, stolen glances, and unspoken feelings neither one is ready to name. But just as they begin to fall into something more, secrets from the past-and the people around them-threaten to tear it apart.
A lie told in the name of protection.
A truth hidden in the name of love.
And a betrayal that leaves them as strangers again.
Set during their freshman year and ending with the final days of summer, Friendly Enemies: Book One is a slow-burn girl-loves-girl (GLG) story about the messy, beautiful, heartbreaking journey of first love and lost trust. Perfect for fans of The Summer I Turned Pretty and Heartstopper-but with its twist of heartbreak, identity, and raw emotion.
Because some friendships feel like home-until they don't.
