When the rules of dating change

With graduation approaching, Eddy’s familiar approach to romance is unsettled by his attraction to Lucinda Dulko. The setup turns dating into a question of control and changing expectations: Eddy has treated relationships as a game with clear terms, but Lucinda does not fit the pattern he knows. The tension centers on whether he can adapt when he is no longer the one setting the rules. Framed around teen romance and social themes of dating and sex, the novel considers how confidence and emotional control can be tested when a relationship becomes less predictable.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in dating and relationship dynamics
  • Readers drawn to stories about shifting expectations and questions of control in romance

Book overview

Eddy knows how to play the game of love.

He has all the tricks down cold, and his favorite girls are the ones with cherry lipstick and long legs in fishnets. They know he doesn't make any promises.

But as graduation looms, the game begins to shift for Eddy. He never expected unattainable and perfect Lucinda Dulko to walk into his life. For the first time ever, Eddy's not in control. To be with Lucinda, he has to play on her terms.

But what happens to a player when the rules suddenly change? Will Eddy find a way to win it all? Or will he get played?
