Tyler thought he had everything: good grades, a loving girlfriend, and a picture-perfect life. But everything shatters when an anonymous text warns him that his girlfriend, Alexis, is cheating. Dismissing it as a prank at first, Tyler’s world is turned upside down when he catches her in the arms of Logan Carter—the arrogant, untouchable captain of the football team.

Heartbroken and humiliated, Tyler finds himself tangled in an unexpected game of cat and mouse with a mysterious texter. But things take a surprising turn when Tyler discovers that Logan was the mysterious texter all along. Fueled by anger, confusion, and a strange attraction he can’t explain, Tyler demands answers—only to receive an unexpected confession and a kiss that changes everything.

"What do you mean your son's mother is dead?" Dad asked, his voice shaking but still trying to sound in control.


I turned to look at him, completely thrown off.


This man just heard someone say his baby mama was shot and all he could do was ask follow-up questions like this was some police interrogation?


I stared at him, confused and honestly a little pissed. "Is he serious right now?" I muttered.


Why would anyone ask a man who just lost the mother of his child to explain better? Who does that? Someone who's clearly on the edge, possibly bleeding, possibly about to die too—and my father was treating him like a witness at a crime scene.


I didn't care if the call hadn't ended yet—I couldn't hold it back.


"Who is him, Dad?" I asked under my breath. I didn't want to wait until the call was over. I needed answers now. I was already losing my mind.
