About The Rules of
Rebellion:
1. Skinny dip (her idea)
2. Prank someone (his idea)
3. Stargaze (her idea)
4. Kiss someone (his idea)
Leo Zimmerman has had a crush on his curvy best
friend Kylie Jenkins since forever, so When he discovers the girl with a flair
for baking has a newfound plan to rebel against her overbearing parents, he’s
determined to be the one to help her carry it out. Who better than a
self-proclaimed rebel like himself to show her the ropes of letting loose?
Sure, taking her to her first high school party,
helping her sneak out of the house, or watching a sunset together isn’t exactly
a hardship, but much harder is masking his feelings the more time they spend
together. And when he suggests adding “kiss a boy” to Kylie’s plan and she accepts…suddenly
all his dreams seem to be coming true.
But Leo’s got a secret that could change
everything between them, and it’s only a matter of time before it comes to the
surface.

Excerpt from The
Rules of Rebellion:
Her dimples popped
into place, her smile so bright it about knocked me senseless. She bounced a
bit on her tiptoes, and for one hopeful second I thought she’d maybe hug me.
Unfortunately, she reined in her enthusiasm.
“That’s the nicest
thing anyone has ever said to me,” she said. “I’ve got to run. My sister is
probably pacing in front of my car by now. See you later.”
She scurried off, and
I was disappointed the conversation had ended so quickly. I didn’t mind
watching her walk away, though. I loved how the girl filled out a pair of
jeans. She had more bounce in her step than most of the cheerleaders. Kylie was
just plain…perky. She always seemed
to be happy and smiling. I’d suspected Kylie was one of those rare people who
was always fun to be around. Spending time with her these past few months had
proven I wasn’t wrong.
She finally rounded
the corner, slipping from my view. As I twisted back around, something crinkled
beneath my foot. On the floor, directly where we’d been talking, was a pink
slip of paper. It looked suspiciously similar to the one that had been sticking
out of Kylie’s notebook earlier today.
I swiped it off the
floor as I cast another glance down the hallway. It was too late to call after
her. I’d have to give it back to her later. I reflexively glanced at the page,
assuming it was a recipe, but wanting to be sure it wasn’t something important.
Something she might need immediately.
Senior Checklist.
I glanced down the
hallway again, confirming that she was out of sight and that she hadn’t
realized she dropped the paper and was coming back. The hallway was clearing
out, most of us anxious to get out of here at the end of the day.
With no sign of
Kylie, I leaned against my locker and glanced at the sheet in my hand again. I
was expecting to see items like Choose
date and time for graduation party. Or Tour
college campus.
I did not expect to
see the items that were actually listed.
Senior Checklist
1. Skinny
dip (sort of)
2. Sneak
out (but don’t get caught)
3. Prank
someone (nothing destructive)
4. Go
to a party (no drinking)
5. Kiss
a boy (finally!)
6. Watch
a sunset (so romantic)
If I’d had any idea
her list was going to be so private, I wouldn’t have read it. But once I’d seen
it, I couldn’t exactly un-see it.
So I read it again.
