The New Year One

She doesn't want a date with the guy she's hated forever. He wants one last shot with the woman who slipped through his fingers. New Year's Eve could be a shiny beginning or a huge disaster. 

Is there such a thing as the opposite of childhood sweethearts? That's Jackson and me. We've known each other since we were kids, and that's about how long I've found him obnoxious. When our parents manipulate us into a date on New Year's Eve, my expectations are low . . . until Jackson surprises me in a big way.

Love denied finds its way in a new year!
