About this book
When smooth-talking campus player Holden Sykes sets his sights on your best friend, you do what any good friend would—you sabotage him. But Holden's not about to let you off the hook, turning your protective interference into an all-out prank war that's way more flirtation than feud. As stolen moments and heated glances pile up between you two, you're forced to confront the sizzling attraction you've been denying, leaving you torn between loyalty to your bestie and the undeniable pull toward the guy who refuses to let you push him away. This is a swoon-worthy, laugh-out-loud college romance that proves sometimes the best connections come when you stop fighting what was meant to be.
