Brace yourself for the battle of the exes...

Hayden and Nick used to be a hot item, but their brief affair ended with a highly publicized breakup. Now the two are "just friends," excluding the occasional flirtation.

When Hayden wins the girls' division of a local snowboarding competition, Nick is unimpressed, claiming that Hayden wouldn't have a chance against a guy. Hayden calls Nick's bluff and challenges him to a head-to-head boarding contest. Their mutual friends quickly take sides, the girls on Hayden's and the boys on Nick's, making for an all-out battle of the sexes. This friendly competition is bound to get heated—and they might end up igniting some old flames.

Review:
 
   Put some sexual tension, a battle of sexes and a battle of exes, and you get a book you will not want to put down. Jennifer Echols is an amazing author.

   Hayden and Nick have been insulting and teasing each other ever since their breakup four years ago. Since Hayden's two best friends are dating Nick's two best friends, everyone has been watching and waiting for those two to get back together. And I was definitely one of those people. I love their relationship, it's obvious they should be together. Between those two it was a real rollercoaster.

   I am a big feminist so I love books that talk about battle about of the sexes (like in the book Shut Out written by Kody Keplinger) and girls challenging boys to prove they could do anything.
