Ava’s roommates say she’s a workaholic. But when her boss temporarily suspends her extra lab time, her best friend and bossiest roommate makes fixing Ava’s love life her summer project.
Ava’s love life is definitely broken, but makeover schemes and blind dates with Ruby’s weird library patrons are not the answer. When Ruby takes drastic measures and calls in her brother, Joey—one of Austin’s hottest heartthrobs—to consult, it’s Ava’s worst nightmare.
Good there’s no way Ruby will win the bet now. Bad it’s because Ava fell for Joey when she was fourteen, and no other guy has ever measured up.
She’s never told anyone, and she’ll do anything to keep Joey from finding out—including putting up with a bombshell transformation—if it hides her true feelings when he looks at her. He rejected Ava once, and it nearly broke her. She’ll never give him that chance again.
