"Did you know your dress makes you look like a Pepto Bismol bottle?" Those were the first words he said to me when we met at six years old. I should have known then and there that the asshole would break my heart. But dumb me, I made him my best friend instead. For as long as I can remember, it was Sassy and Macy against the world. We were eight when I asked him to be my husband and promised to never slip him the tongue like my mom and dad did when they kissed. Nine, when I discovered that the Monster under his bed was very real and that we had to hide from it whenever it came home. And sixteen when we were tragically separated à la Romeo and Juliet (well, minus the dying part). So what do I do to mend our friendship? I accepted a dance scholarship at the prestigious Elite Preparatory Academy, a school for the ultra-rich, to be close to him. But my reunion with the boy I left behind doesn't go according to plan. For one thing, Mason Winthrop isn't a kid anymore. He is a sexy six-foot-tall tattooed MMA fighter with dark hair and glacier eyes. And two, Mace isn't happy to see me. At. All. Granted, it would have helped if I hadn't kicked him in the balls, but the jerk had it coming. Believe me! Will we be able to overcome our differences and pick up where we left off amid all the high school angst and drama? Or will the Monster keeping the beautiful boy trapped in a golden cage win the war after all? My name is Saskia Kir. And this is my story. This is a new adult book that is part of a duet and is not standalone. It contains situations and language that some readers might find offensive and/or triggering.
