Synopsis
Jayden Valdez is an overachieving
intellectual. Mike McGinnes is Franklin High School’s dumbest jock. Even though
they barely know each other, she finds his personality repulsive and he thinks
she’s got a giant stick up her you know what.
Mike and Jayden are surprised and annoyed when
their teacher pairs them together for Spanish tutoring. Both feel it’s a
complete waste of time, since nobody could learn from a person who bugs the
crap out of them. Not to mention that their reputations might be ruined if
people realize what they’re doing. But it
doesn’t take long for Jayden to discover that Mike has a secret—he isn’t the
person he appears to be. Much to her dismay, Jayden finds 'Secret Mike'
strangely attractive. And for some crazy reason, Mike is amused by Jayden’s
clever insults and witty banter. Suddenly, they have a much bigger problem than
their mutual disdain. What started as irritating tension is beginning to feel
more like romantic tension and acting on it would be a very bad idea.
Excerpt (Mike)
Jayden’s
glare intensified, and I could tell she was sending me mental death threats.
Eventually, she gave up and sat down across from me. “Was that so hard?” I
asked.
“I have harder parts than my head,” I countered. Her
eyes grew wide at the implication. I let her stew for a second before lifting
my sleeve and flexing my bicep. “You think that’s hard? You should see my abs.”
I’d said it as a joke, but it was basically true.
She was surprised for the briefest moment, then she
grunted. “How Cro-Magnon of you.”
“Your grunt suggests you’re familiar with the genotype
on a personal level.” I smirked.
Jayden’s eyes narrowed. “At least I’ve evolved. Your face suggests that you haven’t yet.”
I tsked in good nature. “Your face might be prettier
than mine, but your manners prove you haven’t evolved as much as you think.”
