Addie Whitmore has loved exactly three things her entire life: romance novels, pink sunsets, and her older brother. Then Raiden Harrington moved in next door. From the moment he became Alec's best friend, Addie was pushed to the sidelines - the little sister, the afterthought, the one left outside closed bedroom doors. And she's never quite forgiven him for it. Now they're all at the same college. Same campus. Same circle. And somehow, the boy she's spent years hating is suddenly everywhere. Worse? He's different. Quieter. Watching her like he's trying to figure her out instead of dismiss her. But Addie already has a boyfriend. And Raiden is off-limits in every possible way. Because if Alec ever found out his best friend was looking at his little sister like that? It wouldn't just break rules. It would break everything. Enemies. Neighbors. Brother's best friend. Some lines were never meant to be crossed. And some grudges were never meant to turn into something more.

Going into my last year of high school, I needed the chance to have my world shifted by Bailey Connors. Bailey Connors: I broadcasted my crush on Beckett Davis in the 2nd grade after decorating him a cookie. And every time after that when I can't control how my face heats around him. My grandfather adores the boy next door, and who doesn't? I'm embarrassed of how long it took me to reach for things I may want, instead of just letting things happen to me. Beckett's seen some of my worst moments from afar, but what would it be like for him to see them up close? #1 in bookworm #1 in highschoolromance #1 in foundfamily #1 in goldenretriever #1 in neighbors #1 in teenromance #1 in friendstolovers
