Crushing responsibilities. But when I'm suddenly forced to spend more time with him, I unexpectedly discover Caleb Winters might be more than just the entitled jock I've sparred with since freshman year. And that realization can only end badly. For me. Because everyone knows he's destined for big, impressive things, and I'm... not.
