Valeria Reyes has a plan: graduate college, chase her dreams, and keep love out of the picture - for now. After watching heartbreak ruin her sister's future, Valeria promises herself she won't make the same mistake. Then she meets Santiago Cruz, the quiet artist in her Literature class whose gentle humor and quiet confidence make it harder and harder to stick to her rule. As friendship turns into something deeper, Valeria faces the question she's tried to avoid: is she protecting her heart, or simply too afraid to open it? Not Ready is a coming-of-age story about promises, timing, and the bittersweet truth that sometimes, love doesn't wait until you're ready.
