Elena Reyes has one goal: graduate top of her class and get out of her small-town high school with a flawless academic record. There's just one problem-Theo Park. Laid-back, infuriatingly charming, and always one point ahead of her.
They've been rivals since freshman year. Eye rolls, sarcastic jabs, and silent wars over quiz scores are basically their love language.
But when a high-stakes senior project forces them to work together, the battlefield shifts. Lines blur. Banter turns to chemistry. And Elena starts to wonder-what if the boy she can't stand is exactly what she needs?
