She calls it a deadline. He calls it a date. Rule #1: Do the work. - Rule #2: Don’t fall for your partner. - Rule #3: Seriously. STOP. FALLING. FOR. YOUR. PARTNER. Easier said than done. When Eliza Parker’s economics teacher announces the semester project, she can hardly believe her luck—her crush, Jesse Evans, ends up in her group. Years of wishing on birthday candles, 11:11 clocks, and stray eyelashes have finally paid off. Unfortunately, so has karma. Because the third member of their team is Juan Sanchez. Artist. Smart-aleck. Self-appointed Love Guru . He’s more interested in mocking her crush strategy than making PowerPoint slides, and way too good at sidetracking Eliza’s carefully rehearsed plans. But somewhere between late-night brainstorming, a fictional country named Economnomnomia , and the sketches Juan keeps trying to hide, Eliza realizes Jesse might not be the one keeping her up at night anymore. Sometimes the hardest part of senior year isn’t following the rules—it’s breaking the right ones. Hilarious and heart-melting, this Dryden High romance by Randi Rigby delivers sharp banter, a crush that complicates everything, and a slow burn that refuses to stay in the background. Perfect for fans of Kasie West and Jenn Bennett.
