Could you plan the Fall Formal with your (hot) nemesis? Whit Rivera is about to find out.
Frenemies Whit and Zay have been at odds for years (ever since he broke up with her in, like, the most embarrassing way imaginable), so when theyre forced to organize the fall formal together, its a literal disaster. Sparks fly as Whitneytype-A, passionate, a perfectionist, and a certified sweater-weather fanaticbutts heads with Zay, a dry, relaxed skater boy who takes everything in stride. But not all of those sparks are bad. . . .
Has their feud been a big misunderstanding all along?
