The 10 Steps To Tame The Nerd

Maya Sinclair ruled Crestwood High—rich, beautiful, untouchable. Until the night they ruined her. Her best friend. Her boyfriend. Her father. New Year’s Eve: Vic cheats. Jackie betrays. Her father replaces her. Humiliation burns through her veins, but Maya doesn’t cry. She retaliates. She will not be the girl they destroyed. She will be the girl they fear. She changes everything—clothes, attitude, rules. Boys are games. Hearts are meant to be broken. Then comes Eddie Thompson. The quiet, infuriating, unshakable nerd. The only one who doesn’t fall at her feet. So she makes him her next challenge. 10 Steps to Tame the Nerd. Step 1: Find his weakness. Step 2: Get under his skin. Step 3: Force proximity. Step 4: Make him jealous. Step 5: Push him too far. Step 6: Make him fall. Step 7: Make him beg. Step 8: Make him hers. Step 9: Break him. Step 10: Walk away. But Eddie doesn’t break. He flips the game. The more she plays, the more she loses control. He sees past the act—past the reckless, flirty, untouchable Maya—straight into the shattered girl underneath. And for the first time, she wants to stop pretending. Then Victor Carter snaps. Her ex won’t be forgotten. Won’t be replaced. If he can’t have Maya, no one can. And he will burn her life to the ground to prove it. When Vic raises the gun, Maya finally realizes—this was never about taming Eddie. This was about surviving Vic. A game of obsession, manipulation, and broken hearts. A twisted dance between love, hate, and control. The line between desire and destruction blurs, and everything Maya thought she knew about herself, about Eddie, becomes nothing but a lie. Can love survive the poison of obsession? Can they survive each other?
