Malia Baker has always believed life makes sense when it follows an equation - study hard, keep your head down, and survive high school one physics problem at a time. But her logic doesn't account for Kylie Cantrall - captain of the girls' basketball team, effortlessly cool, and completely out of her league.
Kylie's used to being the confident one - the face everyone recognizes, the girl who always has it together. Until she catches herself thinking about the quiet, sharp-eyed nerd from her English class. The one with the messy notes, nervous smile, and the kind of curiosity that makes Kylie want to know everything about her.
When a tutoring session turns into something more, both girls find themselves pulled into an unexpected orbit - one that's equal parts awkward, electric, and terrifyingly real. But in a school where reputations rule, can two girls from opposite ends of the social spectrum figure out how to be honest about what they feel - and who they're becoming?
