Dropout: A Good Guys Novel

Mackenna

I have everything I need to live out my dream of being a reclusive songwriter amp;mdash; my guitar, my notebook, and blissful silence.

At least, I did until Jimmy moved in next door.

He's got bad news written all over him. And last time I got with a bad boy, it ended with me pointing a gun and pulling the trigger. Talk about going out with a bang.

Jimmy makes me want things I shouldn't want, which means I have two options: avoid him or piss him off. But no matter what I do he isn't fazed, and I'm quickly realizing there's more to Jimmy than I originally thought.

Jimmy

Over the past year, I've been called a lot of things. Slacker. Troublemaker. Party animal. I thought I was on top of the world. Turns out, I was pretty close to rock bottom. Now I have a new title: college dropout.

But I've got a chance to redeem myself amp;mdash; one summer of squeaky-clean behavior at Grandma Beverly's. Two months to prove I'm not a complete f--k-up.

And four rules to follow with the gorgeous girl next door. Rules aren't exactly my forte, but I only plan on breaking one of them. I want to get back to being one of the good guys.
