How To Secretly Date Your Brother's Best Friend: ... and other crazy ideas

Seventeen-year-old Hannah McKenzie navigates the stress and anxiety, lies, and deception of teenage life as she tries to keep her escalating romance with her brother's best friend a secret. When Hannah McKenzie returns to school for her junior year after the worst summer of her life, the last thing she needs is for her brother's best friend to return for his senior year hotter than ever before. With his die-hard abs, crushing smile, and overprotective eye, Kairo is insanely attractive, a little dangerous, and extremely annoying. Until now, Hannah has managed to keep her on-again-off-again crush on Kairo a neatly packaged secret. But what happens when Kairo starts to fall hard for Hannah? Will she risk it all and let go of the guy she thought she knew and embrace the storm that is Kairo Ramzi? And how will they keep this secret from their friends and Hannah's brother, Jake, who are convinced that Kairo is just too complicated for sweet, innocent Hannah? Trigger warnings: The characters deal with the suicide of someone close to them. The story takes place four years after this tragedy. It also deals with suicidal thoughts from one of the characters.
