We were supposed to be best friends
But turned out to be worst enemies…
Penn
They say revenge is a dish best served cold.
I’d had four years to stew on what Daria Followhill did to me, and now my heart is completely iced.
I took her first kiss.
She took the only thing I loved.
I was poor.
She was rich.
The good thing about circumstances? They can change. Fast.
Now, I’m her parents’ latest shiny project.
Her housemate. Her tormentor. The captain of the rival football team she hates so much.
Yeah, baby girl, say it—I’m your foster brother.
There’s a price to pay for ruining the only good thing in my life, and she’s about to shell out some serious tears.
Daria Followhill thinks she is THE queen. I’m about to prove to her that she’s nothing but a spoiled princess.
Daria
Everyone loves a good-old, unapologetic punk.
But being a bitch? Oh, you get slammed for every snarky comment, cynical eye roll, and foot you put in your adversaries’ way.
The thing about stiletto heels is that they make a hell of a dent when you walk all over the people who try to hurt you.
In Penn Scully’s case, I pierced his heart until he bled out, then left it in a trash can on a bright summer day.
Four years ago, he asked me to save all of my firsts for him.
Now he lives across the hall, and there’s nothing I want more than to be his last everything.
His parting words when he gave me his heart were that nothing in this world is free.
Now? Now he is making me pay.

I finished this book days ago and I still don't quite know to put my feelings on paper. This story consumed me, gutted me in the best possible way. 

Welcome to All Saints High, home of the Totholes. Where money, power, wealth, and popularity are a given. But at what cost? Daria Followhill's story broke my heart. Her internal struggles were so real, so relatable for so many kids nowadays. The pressure to be perfect, to not let anyone down. My heart ached for her so much.

"The thing about life is, it always hits us. No one leads a charmed life. Even the blond, gorgeous, picture-perfect, popular rich girl harbors secrets."

Then there was Penn Scully. The quintessential football star bad boy torn between following his heart and wanting to do right by his family. Coming from the wrong side of the tracks Penn has lead a much different life than Daria. 

“We're just two teenagers who never stood a chance to be friends in this world, so we became what was expected of us..Enemies.”

This book CONSUMED me. I can't recommend it enough. It was 100% worth the wait. All the angst. All the feels. Enemies to lovers. It was just perfection. Definitely a top read of the year and I can NOT wait to see whats next in this series. Knight and Vaughn are just delish!

“I’ve loved you in secret, and I’ve loved you openly in front of both our worlds, and if you think I’ll stop loving you if you put an ocean between us, you’re dead wrong.”
