Now that she's carved out her place in the high school hierarchy, she uses her position to help the unpopular kids walking the hallways. Saving a freshman from bullies? Check. Swapping insults with the head cheerleader? Check. Falling for the star quarterback? So not a part of her plan. But when Brett offers to help her solve the mystery of who’s posting X-rated videos from the girls’ locker room, she’ll have to swallow her pride and learn to see past the high school stereotypes she’s never questioned—until now.

    (Crista McHugh, Nov. 30, 2015)
    The Queen B*, Alexis Wyndham, has only three rules when it comes to dating the star quarterback, Brett Pederson: 1. No obligations to spend every waking moment with each other. 2. No public displays of affection while at Eastline High. 3. And absolutely, under no circumstances, will she ever go to the Homecoming dance. But as her life is completely upended time and time again, she begins to wonder if some rules are meant to be broken.
