Neriah Scott is a 17-year-old girl who seems calm, confident, and unbothered at school—but behind closed doors, her home life is tense and unstable. Arguments at home make school the one place she actually feels safe, especially when she’s with her chaotic but loyal group of friends.
You and Kai Bennett have always had one rule—no dating each other. It was easy to follow when everything stayed the same. When he was just your best friend. When no one else mattered. But things start to shift when Ethan transfers in—charming, attentive, and suddenly giving you the kind of attention Kai never did. Now the lines are blurring. The jokes don’t feel like jokes anymore. And Kai? He’s definitely acting different. Because maybe the real problem was never the rule… It was what happens when you both start breaking it.
