" I don't think you realize what you've always been to me, El. You were the quiet in my chaos, the one thing that ever felt like home-even when I didn't deserve it." ~~🤍~~ Ariella Hale has spent 4 years keeping her distance from Ace, her brother's charming best friend who always knew how to make her heart race. When he returns home from college for summer break, Ariella's carefully built walls begin to crack. She's not the shy girl she once was-she's sharp-tongued, confident, and no longer afraid to speak her mind. But when she's forced to interact with Ace at her family's annual BBQ, sparks fly in ways she didn't expect. Aces bad boy charm hasn't faded, and neither has the tension between them. As they find themselves thrown together again, Ariella struggles to resist the pull he has on her, especially when he seems more interested in her sharp wit than ever before. Can Ariella keep her distance from the boy who's always made her heart skip a beat, or is this summer destined to change everything? Ranked #8 in summer break All my work, do not steal!
