This is just perfect. Jax starts walking toward me, shoving aside the girl he was making out with, his eyes locked on my lips with a hungry look. Oh no. Jax is completely wasted. In seconds, his soft lips are on mine, and it feels incredible. He pulls me closer, his strong arm wrapping around my waist. Meet Valentina "Val" Torres. She's stunningly beautiful and used to own it-until one night changed everything. Since then, she's kept a low profile, avoiding attention, which isn't easy since her brother is the school's star athlete. Meet Jaxon "Jax" Steele. The classic high school quarterback bad boy. He's known for toying with girls' hearts and is one of the most popular-and hottest-guys in school. What happens when a game of truth or dare at a party brings them together? You'll have to see. With her overprotective brother and his best friend, Mason Reed, in the mix, Will Val be willing to take the risk for Jax? ---”
