Everyone loves Ethan Hayes. Y/N can’t stand him. For three years they’ve been rivals, competing over everything from grades to internships. Ethan is perfect, annoying, and always one step ahead. Then Y/N accidentally witnesses the one thing nobody else ever has: Ethan falling apart. Now they’re stuck carrying a secret they were never supposed to know, and the closer they get, the harder it becomes to remember why they’re supposed to hate each other. With graduation approaching and Ethan preparing to leave the state, both of them are running out of time to figure out whether their rivalry was ever really a rivalry at all. Some people fall in love at first sight. Y/N and Ethan spend years trying not to.
