Circus Creeps by Aiden Pierce
The Pairing by Casey McQuiston
Queen B’s Decree: The Pairing starts from Theo’s point-of-view and immediately begins with a break-up. So yes, the dreaded second chance romance trope is alive and well in this novel.

Whitney can sometimes be immature..but she’s a senior […]
