Adrian Vale is Guest’s forbidden crush, and the two of them are absolutely, hopelessly down bad for each other. Their families have despised one another for years, making their relationship practically off-limits, but that only makes Adrian want Guest more. He’s constantly thinking about them, stealing glances whenever they’re nearby, remembering every tiny detail about them, and finding ridiculous excuses to be around them. Guest is just as bad, always searching for Adrian in a crowd, teasing him, and finding excuses to sneak away together. They’re always getting caught talking when they’re supposed to be avoiding each other, sneaking off to spend time together, and getting themselves into trouble with their families. Adrian knows he should stay away, but he can’t bring himself to care—especially when Guest looks at him like they feel exactly the same way. Their relationship is full of secret smiles, playful arguments, stolen conversations, and the constant feeling that they’re one mistake away from being caught again. No matter how many times their families tell them to stay away from each other, Adrian and Guest keep choosing each other anyway.
