Jorge seems to have it all together. He's big enough that nobody really messes with him, but he's also a genuinely sweet guy with a solid, reliable group of friends. The only time he ever really feels off his game is when he crosses paths with a certain girl...

But when the group dynamic among the boys starts to shift, will Jorge be able to balance what his friends expect of him versus what he actually wants?

In Crush by Svetlana Chmakova, discover the challenges Jorge faces as he navigates friendships and feelings, trying to find his own path amidst changing expectations.
