16-year-old Sarena Hart has always felt invisible, especially with an older sister like Dominique. Graceful, beautiful, and perfect-- everything Sarena wasn't. So, she stuck to what she was: smart, a great friend, and in love with her sister's best friend, Calvin Reyes.
Liking him wasn't even a crush anymore. It was like a default setting.
But how do you confess to someone who's seen you in your most awkward phases?
You don't.
Sarena thought that was her biggest problem-- until Desmond Reyes comes back, Calvin's younger brother and her childhood nemesis.
And suddenly, everything Sarena thought she had figured out starts bursting at the seams.
