He's so out of my league and he's my best friend. Why was Tuck the guy I had to fall for?
Moving back to Woodlands is harder than I could have ever imagined. Everything has changed. My sister is dating the boy I've always crushed on, my girlfriends have joined ranks with the mean girls, but my saving grace is and always will be my best friend Tuck.
However when Tuck becomes Woodland High's newest football sensation he enters the popularity zone and although he tries to bring me along with him, it isn't where I, the chubby girl, belongs and the whole school is sure to let me know.
When the rumors become too much, I do the only thing I can - push Tuck away.
Big mistake. Especially when I finally realize that what I feel for Tuck is way more than friendship.
But do I have what it takes to get him back?
A story of friendship, family, tragedy, and most of all romance.
