David has a huge, life-ruining, crush on Alyssa Harvard (who is only about one billion times out of his league). As if that wasn't enough of a problem, her parents want her to date a "gentleman" (a trait which composes about 1% of David's DNA). 

Being assisted by a random guy he literally just met (like seriously, where did this Ricky guy come from?), and all the while being hindered by his ridiculous friends, family drama that refuses to stay buried, and the chaos that is life in general... the chances of David getting the girl seem slim to none. 

But the day that Ricky Santos fails at something, is the day that pigs sprout wings and fly, so whether the world likes it or not... David is GETTING that date. 

David's life is about to get a whole lot classier. 

(Prepare yourself for mayhem.)

"You also think you know my 'type', do you?" I raised my fingers above my head gesturing for quotation marks. "Well then, let's hear it. What's my type?" He didn't say anything, just stared me down. I continued. "Say it. Is he smart, or funny, or romantic? You don't know anything about the kind of guy I'd want, Jai!" "Would you want a guy like me, Anaya? Would you?" "So what if I did?" ******** When Jai and Anaya, two perfect strangers, meet on a college tour, it's clear that Anaya wants nothing to do with him. After all, they didn't meet before this and they would never meet after. But then, they do meet again. And again. And again. Sometimes, two people don't work together on paper. If they're like Jai and Anaya, they don't seem to work in real life either. But no matter how hard two people push away from each other, the universe has a funny way of pushing them back. Inspired by Hum Tum and When Harry Met Sally 😁

Aren't one sided crushes fun? NOT! 18 year old Melody Jenkins has spent the last 3 years of high school crushing on one guy, Jake Kensington, who sees her as no more than a sister from another mister and best friend. Not wanting to risk their friendship, Melody has kept her crush a secret and her emotions in check whenever she's around him... which is daily since they live on the same property. It's her senior year and she has made it through the past three years of high school with little social psychological trauma. That's excellent considering she goes to a school in Los Angeles where the majority of the bored students graduating will have executive paying jobs the moment they walk across stage. If all goes well, she will graduate as the valedictorian with multiple offers from colleges on the East Coast, far away from California. But when the health teacher announces a "special" project that requires students to be paired and live under the same roof for one week, Melody's world gets completely turned upside down. She is forced to spend time with someone totally opposite of her and frankly, she can't stand... or so she thought. One night of catching a glimpse of the softer side of Kyle Warner, the school's most popular and arrogant quarterback, has her heart pounding and her stomach doing flip-flops. But when Melody shows an ounce of affection toward Kyle, Jake discovers feelings of his own as he tries to protect his best friend from the guy he knows Kyle can be. As the project comes to an end, Melody goes to homecoming... will it be a night to remember, forget or both? Be advised, this contemporary Teen / Young Adult Romance story has some strong language and strong sexual connotation.
