All About Romeo

"This is all about Romeo," he said. "I want to be the guy of your dreams, Aven. Me. Stupid, Aaron Loving, who a week ago you couldn't stand, and who today, right now, you want to kiss you blind. When you decide that's who I am, that I'm good enough, I'll be right here, waiting."
Locked in the closet with Mr. Irritating, the last thing Aven Modell thought would happen was the kiss of the century. But she was wrong. Aaron Loving might be annoying, but locking lips with him was something she'd never forget.
Unfortunately, neither would he.
Yet the Aaron who asks for math help isn't the same guy she knows at school, and her heart is not as certain as she thought. It could be where love is concerned that she has something important to learn.
