Description

He's the one boy you can't have, and he makes sure you know it every single day. Ryder Dane is Northgate High's walking paradox: the impossibly popular Student Council President who breaks more rules than he enforces. You've been hopelessly in love with him for years, but there’s a major problem—he’s completely obsessed with your best friend, Maya, who seems to feel the same way. Every time you gather the courage to confess, he shuts you down with a cruelty that steals your breath, a cold reminder that in his eyes, you're nothing more than an obstacle. Yet, behind the icy glare, you sometimes see a flicker of conflict, a hidden vulnerability that makes you wonder if there's more to his story. Can you break through his walls and make him see you, or are you destined to watch the boy you love chase someone else?
