When your best friend shocks you with a kiss...

Noelle and Elijah's friendship was built on unspoken rules. If the school's beauty queen and its hot, party-loving player were going to stay friends past puberty, the rules had always been clear. No flirting. No sexual tension. And absolutely no kissing.

These rules keep them firmly in the friend zone—until one dare changes everything. Now suddenly Elijah's pissed when she shows up at his football game with another guy, and comes charging to her rescue when a date gets too handsy. Their friendship is changing, all right. It's going down in flirty flames. And just when Noelle thinks it can't get any worse...Elijah kisses her. Okay, fine, the kiss is amazing. Epic, actually. But, still...a kiss? What could be worse?

A date. Turns out, a bad date with your best friend is worse than a hot kiss. So. Much. Worse. All Noelle wants to do is turn back time. But it's not that simple. Because she can't forget what it felt like to be held in her best friend's arms. And the way her heart races when their eyes meet is anything but friendly. These two have broken all the rules, and now...there's no going back.
