Having a massive unrequited crush on the same guy for four years was not how aspiring poet Rachel had envisioned spending high school. Blending into the wall and being the most forgotten person in high school, sure! But pining for a guy for years?

She's realistic. Her mother has made her well aware of a fact that Rachel has known for years: Guys like Jaxon will never give a girl who has to hide her figure in baggy jeans and big t-shirts the time of a day. And he never has. But now that they are paired up in half their classes for her senior year, and she's having to spend way more time with him than is comfortable for her, he seems to be noticing her. Is that such a good thing?  

Jaxon knows everyone and is more observant than people give him credit. He also also has a closely guarded secret that might destroy his reputation as one of the most popular kids in school if it came out. A perpetual ladies man who hasn't dated in years, he loves how Rachel blushes when he flirts with her. But suddenly, it's not all fun and games anymore, and the girl he thought was a harmless flirtationship is putting him at risk for getting in over his head.  

In this tale of insecurity and love, Meg Danale explores how people can surprise us in all the best ways and how faith in our fellow humans can sometimes lead to something more.
