Description
I've always been "the quiet, nerdy girl." The girl with her nose buried in a book, the girl people barely notice. But my world is a lot more complicated than it seems. You see, I'm absolutely, hopelessly in love with my best friend, Logan Reyes-the bad boy everyone wants but nobody can quite hold onto. And he has no idea. Logan and I have been friends forever. We banter, we laugh, and we're close. But to him, I'm just Emma, the girl he'll confide in about everything-except his new flings, like Vanessa, the school's reigning queen bee. She's got her sights on Logan and everyone knows it. Meanwhile, Logan and I share this strange, unspoken chemistry that I can't ignore, even if we act like it's no big deal. But everything changes the night I get roped into a game of spin the bottle at Vanessa's party. When the bottle lands on Logan, he kisses me in front of everyone-and suddenly, it's like I'm seeing Logan in a whole new light, and he's seeing me differently, too. Now he's paying me attention in a way that's unsettling, thrilling, and absolutely forbidden. And just when I think I can ignore it, Logan begins pursuing me-unabashedly, against all the rules he's lived by and despite his so-called girlfriend's wishes. Now, I'm caught in a whirlwind of gossip, jealousy, and emotions I can barely handle. Logan's breaking his own rules for me, and the harder I try to resist him, the more I find myself pulled back. But when we're toeing the line between friendship and something much more dangerous, my heart-and his-are on the line.

I’ve always been “the quiet, nerdy girl”. The girl with her nose buried in a book, the girl people barely notice. But my world is a lot more complicated than it seems. You see, I’m absolutely, hopelessly in love with my best friend, Logan Reyes. And he has no idea.
Logan and I have been friends forever. To him, I’m just Emma, the girl he’ll talk to about everything—except his new flings, like Vanessa, the school's reigning queen bee. She’s got her sights on him and everyone knows it. Meanwhile, Logan and I share this strange, unspoken chemistry that I can’t ignore, even if we act like it’s no big deal.
But everything changes the night I get roped into a game of spin the bottle at Vanessa’s party. And the bottle lands on Logan.

Warning: Prolonged exposure to Logan may result in a one-night stand and a series of bad decisions. But let’s be honest, even if he came with that warning, girls would still throw themselves at him like he was some kind of cosmic reward for good behavior. And those girls? Yeah, they’d rather set me on fire than see me breathe the same air as him.
“Em, you seriously need to get out more,” Logan said.
“And what? Join your cult of admirers?” I clutched my soda like it was a shield. “No, thanks. I’m not cut out for worshiping at the altar of Logan Reyes.”
His grin widened. “It’s an exclusive fan club. I might be able to get you in, though.”
“Oh, how generous. What’s the membership fee? My dignity?”
Logan laughed, the kind of laugh that made everyone else sound like they were trying too hard.
He leaned back, hands behind his head. “You know, if you were a little nicer and open, you might actually make some friends.”
“Friends like you?” I scoffed, tossing a balled-up napkin at his head. He caught it midair, of course, because apparently, being good at everything was just part of his DNA.
“Exactly. I’m a great friend.”
“You’re insufferable.”
“And you’re fun to mess with.” He leaned closer. His face was suddenly way too close, his stupidly perfect jawline practically mocking me. “Admit it—you’d be bored without me.”
I’d be lost without you, my traitorous thoughts whispered, uninvited.
My gaze lingered on his lips for a little too long, and I wouldn’t have found the strength to pull away if Logan hadn’t broken the unintentional spell. Hopefully, he didn’t notice.
“See you later, Em,” he said standing up to leave. His grin should have been illegal. My brain short-circuited as I tried to act like I haven’t just melted in front of him like a piece of chocolate left out in the sun.
“Yeah,” I managed, my voice way too shaky for my liking.

At home, I buried my face in a pillow, trying to drown out the memory of his smile, eyes and lips. It didn’t help that when I reached for my book, the hero’s smirk practically screamed Logan. Of course, the fictional bad boy also had a habit of driving the heroine insane.
My phone buzzed, yanking me back to reality.
Logan: “You’re coming to the party, right? Don’t make me drag you there.”
I stared at the message, my stomach doing somersaults. Logan dragging me anywhere was a dangerous thought—and the worst part? I wasn’t sure I’d mind.
