Imagine this: working side by side with the guy who turned your high school years into a cringe fest. Say hello to my personal nightmare, Alex Walsh.

Sure, he's got looks that could launch a thousand ships and a confidence level that makes Superman look shy. But let's get real, that's not enough to make me fall for his charms. Not again, anyway.

Let's rewind to high school, shall we? Alex was my unshakable crush, the reigning champion of my heart. That's until the unforgettable kiss happened-right before he orchestrated my personal humiliation. Yup, I'm still scrubbing the cringe off my soul from that one.

But things are different now. There's no more kissing frogs for me. I'm in a dating pact with my friends to find a proper guy, a prince. Not an all-too charming nightmare from my past.

Fast forward to the present and destiny's definitely having a laugh. I'm stuck working with Alex, exhibiting his art in my boss's gallery. His beautiful, heart-touching creations might be doing a number on me, but I'm not budging.

Remember, I'm after a prince, not a repeat disaster in the form of Alex Walsh. Falling for my old arch-nemesis is so far from my agenda, it's not even on the same planet.
