Until I don't

What happens when your biggest rival starts becoming the one you can't stop thinking about? Alexa Winters is used to staying under the radar. With her close-knit group of friends and a laser focus on academics, she's content letting the popular crowd do their thing-especially Ethan Harper, the golden boy everyone seems to adore. The problem? He's infuriating, overly confident, and the one person Alexa can't seem to avoid. Ethan Harper thrives on being the best-at school, on the soccer field, and in life. But Alexa's sharp wit and unwavering determination make her the one challenge he can't resist. Their rivalry is legendary, and Ethan wouldn't have it any other way. For starters, they're thrown together for a school charity event, sparks fly-not just from their arguments but from the chemistry they're both reluctant to admit. Between heated banter, surprising moments of vulnerability, and a shared desire to be seen for who they really are, Alexa and Ethan begin to realize that love and loathe almost do sound the same.
