Betting On The Wrong Guy

Angel Claire Peterson has spent all of high school trying to fit in with the people who never once looked her way. She has only one goal before graduation: to finally be noticed by Hailey's elite squad, the girls who rule OceanView High like it's a runway. She's been invisible long enough, and senior year feels like her last shot.

When Hailey offers her a spot in their exclusive circle, there's a catch, Angel must succeed in a daring bet. The challenge? Make Jason Alexander Lockhart, the untouchable, mysterious, boy everyone fears, fall for her in just three months. If she succeeds, she earns her place among The Elites. If she fails... she faces a humiliation she'll wish she could erase.

But Jason isn't what she expected. He's not cruel or heartless, but he's not exactly nice either. He doesn't smile, doesn't talk unless he has to, and his stare alone is enough to make people back off. Yet beneath all that, there's something else. He's hiding a vulnerability she never imagined.

What started out as a game quickly becomes something deeper. Because, in the end, Angel realizes she's betting on the wrong guy.

The guy who was supposed to be nothing more than a challenge, is the one who's unexpectedly claimed her heart.
