Eighteen-year-old Emery Collins has spent most of high school wishing people would notice her. Curvy, insecure, and usually hidden beneath oversized clothes, she watches Northbridge High’s popular crowd from the outside, convinced that if she could just become one of them, maybe she wouldn’t feel so invisible.
Especially to Rhett Callahan.
Star quarterback. Most popular guy in school. And the boy Emery has secretly crushed on for years.
Rhett has everything Emery wants—friends, attention, confidence, and a place where he belongs. But being Northbridge’s golden boy comes with expectations of its own, and sometimes Rhett isn’t sure people see anything beyond the football player everyone expects him to be.
Then Emery accidentally sends a text to the wrong number.
What begins as an embarrassing mistake turns into teasing, flirting, and conversations Emery finds herself waiting for every day. Talking to a stranger is strangely easy when she doesn’t have to worry about impressing him.
There’s just one problem.
Emery has no idea the stranger on the other side of those messages is Rhett Callahan.
And Rhett has no idea the funny, sarcastic girl he’s becoming addicted to texting is the quiet girl he barely notices in the hallway.
Online, they’re falling for each other.
At school, they barely know each other.
But what happens when the truth comes out—and Emery discovers the stranger who makes her feel seen is the one boy she never believed would notice her?
And what happens when Rhett realizes the girl he’s falling for has been right in front of him all along?
They fell for each other without names. The truth might be the one thing that tears them apart.
