I Kissed His Rival, Not My Crush
She kissed the wrong boy—and it changed everything. For years, everyone believed Lila was hopelessly in love with her cocky stepbrother Carter, but she kept her real feelings hidden, even from herself. One impulsive dare turns the rumor mill upside down, igniting Carter’s jealousy and exposing the tangled secrets of their past. When her quiet crush Mason reappears, Lila is forced to choose: keep playing Carter’s game, or finally step into her own story. But as old wounds resurface and new sparks fly, Lila learns that the truth is messier—and far more dangerous—than any high school gossip. When a simple birthday dinner reunites her with Mason, he asks the one question she’s never dared answer. Is she ready to risk everything for the chance at something real?
