Connor's senior year is about to get a whole lot more complicated when Sydney bursts into his life with the confidence and charm he's always lacked—and a mission to help him finally confess his feelings to Mackenzie, the girl who's occupied his heart for far too long. With his ride-or-die best friends Sam and Mart cheering him on (and probably making things messier in the process), Connor finds himself on an emotional roller coaster that's equal parts hilarious, heartwarming, and devastating. As he navigates the messy reality of crushes, friendship, and self-discovery, he begins to realize that sometimes the greatest love story is the one right in front of you. This is the kind of coming-of-age romance that'll have you laughing through the chaos and swooning through the feels!
