Description

Everyone at Northwood High agrees on two things: you're the undisputed queen of the school, and Kade Falcone, the star quarterback, is unequivocally smitten with you. In the rigid hierarchy of high school, your two friend groups reign supreme—not as bullies, but as the effortlessly cool, kind, and popular kids everyone wants to be. It was an unspoken rule that your worlds orbited each other without ever truly colliding. But now, things are changing. Your best friends are pairing off with his, leaving you and Kade in the spotlight of the entire school's romantic speculation. He makes his interest obvious in a thousand small ways: the coffee he buys you before first period, the way he saves you a seat at packed assemblies, the intense focus of his gaze that finds you in a crowded hallway. It's a constant, simmering tension, but he's never made a real move. Is this just part of his golden-boy charm, or is the school gossip actually true? As summer break looms, the pressure to define whatever is between you becomes impossible to ignore.
