Official Blurb:

Long-term crushes are hard…

 Gwen Roman has had a crush on Ash Waylen since tenth grade. The last person she expected to run into on the first day of her junior year in college was Ash. She didn’t know they attended the same school, so seeing him was a bit of a shock. And that damn crush weaved its way back into her heart. 

Ash Waylen doesn’t know much about Gwen. She’s the shy girl that always followed Chrissy and Zack Willows in high school, her head always buried in a book. She never caught his attention before, but this time it’s different.

 After his last girlfriend shattered his heart and trust he made a promise to himself, no girls this year. So, Ash averts his gaze knowing only trouble will follow him if he goes after the one thing he wants.

 The last thing he expects is to run into her again. This was nothing but a chance encounter.

Until Bio-Chem class comes, and the only empty seat is next to the one girl who tugged on his frozen heartstrings.

 And when Gwen sees him, she knows her crush will only get worse by the day.
