My phone is vibrating itself off the table. A flood of messages, over a hundred of them, has turned my high school group chat into a frenzy. Every last message is about Samantha Lee, the undisputed queen of Northwood High. [She's back! Landed today!] [Holy shit! This is Ethan Shaw's chance! We have to make this happen!] [The untouchable genius, brought to his knees by love, only to have his heart shattered on graduation night. It's been ten years, and I still can't let it go.] I, Lauren Rivers, quietly pick up my phone. What they don't know is that their "untouchable genius," the boy who supposedly got his heart broken, has been my husband for the last three years. And me? I was just the quiet girl in the background, the one with a front-row seat to their epic high school romance. They think this reunion can rekindle an old flame? I lock my phone and lean against the doorframe of the study, a smirk playing on my lips. My husband is buried under a stack of legal briefs. "Honey," I murmur. "Guess who's back in town? Your high school sweetheart. And apparently, the old crew is trying to play Cupid." He doesn't even look up from his work. "Not going." My smirk widens into a full-blown grin. "Oh, you're so going. There's no way I'm watching this show by myself."
