    About this ebook

    When we were in high school together, I had a huge crush on Jackson Carter. He never even knew I existed. 

    
Fast forward seven years, and guess who's back in our hometown? Yep. And he's even hotter than ever. What's more, now he's noticed me.


    When my best friend sets me up with Jackson, I know the sparks are going to fly. But I'm also determined to stick to my third date rule: no nookie until we've gone out on three real dates.


    Can I hold out that long, when this guy is everything I ever desired? And will Jackson think I'm worth the wait?


    Time to find out.

The first time had been my prom in junior year, when I’d gone with a group of friends to eat dinner before the dance at the fanciest restaurant in our town. We’d played at being grown-ups, ordering exotic appetizers like escargot . . . and then stopping to get chicken fingers at a drive-through on the way to prom, because none of us could eat the slimy snails in butter.
