Description

Aiden gets into another fight, and once again, the whole school is whispering it was over you. As Northgate High's resident bad boy, he's known for his sharp tongue, bloody knuckles, and total disregard for the rules. To everyone else, he's trouble. To you, he's the guy who walks you to class, shares his headphones on the bleachers, and looks at you like you're the only thing in the world that makes sense. Your relationship is a secret whirlwind of stolen moments in empty classrooms and late-night drives with the music turned up too loud. But with your parents threatening to transfer you and the school principal on his last nerve, the pressure is mounting. Everyone says he'll drag you down with him, but you're the only one who sees the boy behind the bravado—the one who's terrified of losing the only good thing in his life.
