Ever

She’s the girl next door, my best friend, and all I want. If only I could figure out how to tell her. 

Ever since my dad took a job in Washington D.C., I’m used to picking up the slack around the house. Between school, taking care of my four sisters, and diving practice, I’m a master at handling whatever life throws at me. Except when it comes to the girl next door.

Gwen has been my best friend ever since kindergarten. She’s the jelly to my peanut butter, the frosting to my cake. She’s there for me like no one else. The keeper of my secrets. Except there’s one secret I can’t figure out how to share—I’m hopelessly in love with her.

And secrets have a nasty way of multiplying. Just when I need my best friend the most, another guy asks me for advice on how to win Gwen’s heart. 

How much can one person really handle?
