Emryn has always been the girl everyone whispers about. Leather jackets, smudged eyeliner, and a reputation that tastes like danger. She's chaos in heels, collecting secrets and sins like trophies. So when she overhears that Ehsaas, the school's quiet, top-of-the-class golden boy, has never even kissed anyone, something in her dark, restless heart sparks.
He's too pure. Too composed. Too untouched.
She can't help herself.
At first, it's just a game, a twisted little thrill. Anonymous notes slipped into his locker. Sultry texts from an untraceable number. Daring dares signed with kisses and devilish clues. Watching him squirm, blush, and obsess over the girl he doesn't know he's falling for? Delicious.
But what starts as harmless fun becomes something else. Something Emryn refuses to name.
Because the more she pushes his buttons, the more she realizes he's not just some bookish boy with a fragile heart, he's observant, loyal, and disarmingly kind. And he's catching on. Worse, he's getting under her skin.
She was supposed to unravel him.
But Ehsaas might just be the one to unravel her.
As the lines blur between desire and deception, anonymity and honesty, Emryn must ask herself: Is she still playing the game? Or is she the one being undone?

Myrtle Beach is just one of those cities where you never know what you're going to get. One day it can be all smiles and rainbows, and the next everything is destroyed.
If you asked 𝐃𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐫, she'd tell you the whole world has been on fire for the last three year. There's nothing she wants more than to crawl into some dank hole and be forgotten. And she almost gets her way, until she meets him.
𝐇𝐮𝐝𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐫, playboy extrodinaire, usually found drunk off his ass at some rager. Something told him that his vacation to Myrtle Beach would change his life, but he didn't expect for everything he thought he knew to be challenged. But the moment she walked into his life, he was under her spell.
There's only two ways a combination like this could end: in exposions or in sparks
Who knows? Maybe it's both.
