One late morning, she lands herself in detention, where she finds herself next to her brother's best friend. The boy who doesn't even remember her, and the one who won't stop staring at her. He's nothing but cocky, smug, and way too good at making her uncomfortable. But detention leads to conversations, and conversations lead to things she never saw coming. ****** This book has been mostly rewritten.
