"Sasha Johnson-Sun might not know everything--like how to fully heal after her dad's passing or how many more Saturdays her mom can spend cleaning houses. But the one thing Sasha is sure of? She will graduate as Skyline High's class valedictorian. With only a couple of months left before the end of senior year, the title and the scholarship that comes with it are finally within reach. That is, until the principal calls Sasha and her ex-best friend, Ezra Davis-Goldberg, into his office to deliver earth-shattering news: they're tied for valedictorian. And cute, effortlessly gifted Ezra is equally determined to win. The outcome can't be left to chance. So Sasha and Ezra agree on a best-of-three bet. As they go head-to-head in a series of academic challenges, they are forced not only to reexamine why they drifted apart but also to figure out who they've become since. With her future hanging in the balance, Sasha must decide--either honor her family's sacrifices by winning (at all costs) or give her heart a shot at finding happiness"--Dust jacket flap.
