Everly Kingston and Lucilius Russell had known each other since they were toddlers. They were given the same juice boxes and toys to play with. With their parents starting out as door to door neighbors in humble times then remaining as close friends as they parted ways, Everly and Lucilius practically grew up together. Most people automatically assumed they'd be great friends, what with being there for every holiday, going to the beach together and having cookouts, especially since their parents were close as family but that was most definitely not the case. Belonging to prestigious rich families that pressured their children be successful as well, both showed great capabilities and potential promises. Their parents were pretty oblivious to their children's behaviour and shrugged it off as childish banters. But for Eve and Lucus that was far from truth as they hated each other with every fiber of their entire beings. So when the school decides to pair them up together under the current circumstances in order to participate in an upcoming school tournament, both don't hesitate to decline and complain about the match up. But the principal leaves them no choice and ignores the tension the two obviously have in high hopes that the top two students of class 4 A and B will surely win the tournament. Can Everly put aside her differences and rivalry to secure her future? Can Lucus forgive their past together and start afresh or will he hold old grudges and continue bullying Eve as he always has? This is an ongoing book with weekly updates, I look forward to having this journey with you dear reader.

"The answer is 'A,'" I say, keeping my voice light and kind. Carter snorts from beside me. "No, it's 'C.'" Bingo. I was hoping he'd say that. "The question clearly asks you to round to the nearest tenth. If I'm not mistaken, which I don't believe I am, answer 'C' has two decimal places." I smirk as his mouth twitches into a frown. We're still standing. "Very well, Miss. Jones," Mr. Neilson says, projecting another question. "I can't stand you," Carter mumbles in my ear. I turn my head towards him, pressing my lips against his ear. "Then sit the fuck down, Conners," I whisper. "I'm winning." ... Fairridge Prep is for the best of the best. Sadie Jones, stubborn and clever, is set on being the best. Returning from winter break feeling, more so than ever, that she has stolen her sister's dream, Sadie is determined to spend the rest of Junior year proving that she deserves everything she's worked towards. Carter Conners, notorious flirt (only when it comes to Sadie), will do anything it takes to not spend the rest of his life working at his parents' diner. Whether it's running for the track team or debating, Carter is always competing, and competing to win. Sadie and Carter have been rivals since freshman year, constantly bickering and trying to best each other. But when the rivals are thrown into a week long debate competition that, along with getting the top spot on the Principal's List, will guarantee one of them the title of Valedictorian next year, they find themselves enjoying each other's company more than they would've ever expected. And it leaves them wondering: "Do we really hate each other?"
