Jemma Campbell is kindness in a bottle. With shiny blonde hair, blue eyes, and a smile that'll melt your heart, she's the closest thing to perfect. Her one secret: she's spent her whole life secretly infatuated with her best friend's brother and no one can ever know. 

Chase Lawrence is pleasure personified. He's a hotshot football quarterback who never misses a party. He is a major player both on the field but especially off of it. The one girl he can't get: his sister's best friend who's been tempting him his whole life. 

They've spent forever keeping their distance and hiding their feelings with sarcastic quips and pointless competitions. Now, they're back to the same university, but before that, they're spending the last month of summer cramped together at a beach house. What happens when they can no longer deny their feelings, and a forbidden romance turns into a secret relationship?

Because, when two people can't stay apart, maybe they're meant to be together.

This can be read as a standalone but it's highly recommended to read it along with the rest of the series.
