This would never happen if she found out I'm just that nerd who can't stop staring at her in the cafeteria, unable to speak in her presence.If she wasn’t dating my best friend, maybe I wouldn’t feel so guilty for being desperately in love with her.But Kenna is the girl every guy wants, because she lights up every room she enters with her perfect smile and addicting laugh. I can't focus on anyone else when she's nearby.So I let myself flirt with her, and it somehow happens in real life, not just through our late-night emails.The real hang-up is that she doesn’t know there’s two versions of me, the quiet guy I am on the outside and the real me beneath the surface.When she inevitably finds out, I don’t know how she’ll ever forgive me for lying to her about my true identity.This is book two of the Good Ol' Boys Series. It can be read as a complete stand-alone, but the best reader experience will be to start with book one, Falling For Temptation. less
