His new physique attracts the attention of queen bee Bethany Milbury, who just so happens to be his father's boss's daughter, the sister of his biggest enemy, and Tyler's secret crush. And that sets off a string of events and changes that have Tyler questioning his place in school, in his family, and in the world.

This book was absolutely breathtaking if I were you I would buy it because it’s perfect for teenagers getting ready for high school or who are already in high school but this book was amazing a great plot and a great ending.
