This is one of those very slow about-to-happen train wreck type of books. Keir spends most of the book stressing what a great guy he is, to the point that you feel something very, very bad is going to happen. He doth protest too much. Would love to talk to a teen that had read this to see if they saw the same thing coming, or if it just made more sense being somewhat of an adult. I cannot wait until my kids are old enough to start reading junior and young adult fiction to have lively book talks.

(from jacket cover)

I am a good guy.

Keir Sarafina may not know much, but he knows himself. And the one thing he knows about himself is that he is a good guy. A guy who's a devoted son and brother, a loyal friend, and a reliable teammate. And maybe most important of all, a guy who understands that when a girl says no, she means it. But that is not what Gigi Boudakian, childhood friend and Keir's lifelong love, says he is. What Gigi says he is seems impossible to Keir...It is something inexcusable-the worst thing he can imagine, the very opposite of everything he wants to be.
As Keir recalls the events leading up to his fateful night with Gigi, he realizes that the way things look are definitely not the way they really are-and that it may be all too easy for a good guy to do something terribly wrong.
