Spunky Italian coed Ivy Rossini likes to talk and push the boundaries. She gets to do both as she co-hosts Riordan Collegeâ€™s radio program, The Truths about Dating and Mating, alongside her lifelong best friend, Ian Hollister., ,Being the only girl who cares to see beyond Ianâ€™s bad boy reputation has its advantages, especially when heâ€™s scaring off the jerks who just want to nail the campus sex-guru. Itâ€™s when heâ€™s â€œprotectingâ€ her from the advances she welcomes that she wants to lob him over the head and tell him to butt out. But Ivy feels like sheâ€™s the one whoâ€™s taken a hit when Ian almost kisses her at a party. She knows she should feel relieved when he pulls away, so why is she disappointed instead?,Whatâ€™s worse, Ivyâ€™s now getting aroused by Ianâ€™s slightest touch and canâ€™t stop entertaining thoughts of a romantic future. But Ian doesnâ€™t do relationships, and sheâ€™s not interested in anything casual. In the end, Ivy decides itâ€™s best to keep her growing feelings a secret and hope theyâ€™ll pass. However, when Ian begins hinting at wanting to take things to the next level, sheâ€™s forced to decide if a chance at something more is worth risking everything theyâ€™ve built.,With their friendship and her heart hanging in the balance, can Ivy follow the advice she and Ian give their listeners - to communicate, be honest, and trust in themselves - or will insecurity, stubbornness, and pride ruin any chance of their relationship getting off the ground?
