Betts meets Aiden at the candy store where she works, and the sparks are instant. Even before they kiss, Betts knows they are destined to become "us." Betts and Aiden share their secrets with one another, which unfortunately splits Betts and her best friend, Jo, further apart as they both near graduation--especially when Jo insists that Aiden is bad for her, too needy, possessive, and controlling.
