Senior year was supposed to be easy. Graduate. Win football games. Make stupid memories. Don’t get caught. Jax Mercer and Noah Carter have been inseparable since they were kids. They’re the kind of best friends who are always together—pulling pranks, getting detention, finishing each other’s sentences, and insisting they’re “basically brothers.” Everyone else seems to have an opinion about them. They laugh it off. Because they’re obviously not what people think. As graduation gets closer and the future starts pulling everyone in different directions, jokes stop feeling like just jokes, old certainties begin to crack, and the one friendship they’ve never questioned suddenly becomes the hardest thing to understand. Maybe everyone else has been wrong. …Or maybe the only people who don’t see what’s right in front of them are Jax and Noah.
