"Summer is nearly over and Keeley is about to start her senior year when disaster strikes: she picks up the wrong cell phone by mistake. Just her luck that it belongs to Talon, a totally arrogant jock who's just left for football camp--with her phone. Keeley doesn't know him, but they'll need to rely on each other to forward their messages for an entire week. Talon is so full of himself, but Keeley quickly discovers he's funny too--at least his texts are. And he listens to Keeley--which is more than anyone else does. Texting Talon, she can be more than just the quiet twin sister of a popular boy. Texting Talon, she can be the outgoing person she's always wanted to be. Soon the two are falling for each other hard"--Provided by publisher.
