Back in seventh grade, Hayden and Nick went on a few dates. Then when a secret was revealed, the relationship ended...badly.

Now it's junior year and Hayden still finds herself staring at Nick and keeping up-to-date with his never-ending list of girlfriends. The two endlessly flirt back and forth, but that ends when Nick challenges Hayden to a snowboarding competition.

Hayden is all for the competition. She loves snowboarding, but there's one problem: the jump. Hayden is afraid of heights, and Nick won't change his mind about the competition.

So the Extreme Games begin...or shall we say the Ex Games.

Jennifer Echols adds a cute and funny addition to Simon Pulse's Romantic Comedies line. She creates a unique heroine who has a few realistic flaws that get the reader to sympathize and relate to Hayden. Echols also creates a very good-looking leading man who also has depth.

This entertaining story is a great read for anyone who enjoys a true chick flick tale.
