Navigating the complexities of high school life, Percy, a self-proclaimed nerd, finds his world turned upside down when new girl Rebecca arrives. Initially resigned to his status as an outsider, he unexpectedly gains popularity and forms a friendship with Rebecca, who is dating his best friend, Logan. As his feelings for her deepen, Percy faces a difficult choice between his loyalty to Logan and his desire for Rebecca, challenging the notion that nice guys finish last.
Nice guys never get the girl. Ever. Percy is the biggest nerd in High School and even he knows that. He understands how computers work, likes to prove mathematical conjectures and is even a chess champion. He's also a nice guy. So when Rebecca moves to his small town, he knows not to expect anything. Especially when she starts dating his best friend Logan, the most popular guy in school. What he doesn't expect though is how quickly he becomes popular, how quickly him and Rebecca become friends, or how quickly he falls deeply in love with her. Now while riding the tides of new found popularity he has to choose between Logan, the sole reason why he survived the last four years of high school and Rebecca, the girl of his dreams. Growing up I was a "nice guy' . I always waited for the "right time" that never came. I let her walk all over me because we were "just friends." I couldn't get the girl. This book is for every guy out there who is secretly in love with their best friend, and too "nice" to do something about it.
