After losing her mom, Lennon Hayes is shipped to a town she's never seen, to live with a father she barely knows. She plans to keep her head down, finish school, and feel nothing.
Especially for boys like Kai Calloway.
Six-foot-four, quarterback, every girl's mistake.
Arrogant smirk, dangerous eyes.
Trouble wrapped in a varsity jacket.
And for some reason... he wants her.
Kai makes Lennon feel things she's spent months trying to forget-heat, hunger, the kind of pull that starts in her chest and ends low in her stomach. He kisses like he owns her breath. Touches her like he's memorizing every place she falls apart.
But Kai has secrets. Ones whispered in the locker room. Ones that involve her name.
When a cruel bet comes to light, their fragile almost-something combusts. Lennon's left with the scorch marks-humiliated, heartbroken, and haunted by everything they did in the dark.
Kai swears it wasn't supposed to be her.
He wasn't supposed to want her.
He wasn't supposed to fall.
Now the new girl with too much grief and the boy who ruined her are tangled in something neither of them is ready to admit-lust, loyalty, lies... and a night that changes everything.
A story about first desire, first betrayal, and the kind of love that scars deep.
Some mistakes you recover from.
Some haunt you.
And some-
you never outrun.
