COMING SOON
Sixteen-year-old Poppy King has always lived life by the rules: study hard, go to church, keep her head down, and dream quietly about the life she'll live one day beyond her small town. But there's one rule she constantly breaks: crushing on Ryan Ingle, a star athlete that doesn't even know she exists.
Enter Elliot Jones, the boy next door and Poppy's childhood best friend. When Poppy finally gathers the courage to tell Elliot how she feels about Ryan, he does what any good friend would do: her offers to help her land a date. All she has to do is help him pass his classes.
With Elliot's guidance, Poppy transforms from shy wallflower to confident contender, quickly catching Ryan's eye. As her relationship with Ryan starts to heat up, she realizes she's out of her depth when it comes to the unspoken rules of romance. To save her from embarrassment, Elliot steps in again, offering a hands-on crash course in sex. Every touch, whisper, and lingering gaze leaves Poppy questioning her every desire.
As Elliot and Poppy spend even more time together, their playful lessons start to blur the lines between friendship and something more. Poppy is forced to choose between the perfect guy she's always wanted and the imperfect guy who's been by her side all along.
