Of all the things she is unsure of, Audrey can count the most critical uncertainties in her life on a single hand:

1. Whether or not college will be a complete waste of her time.
2. The number of occasions her mother has yelled at her for borrowing money without her permission.
3. How on earth she wound up in a relationship with Cole Mathers.
4. Why her father won't return her calls.

And last, but certainly not least: her sexuality.

Not that she'd ever admit that to anyone, though.

• Yes, this is going to be one of those journey-towards-self-discovery type stories. No, it's not as cliché as you may expect. (Sorry if it ends up that way.)
• This is somewhat based on my own experience with sexuality and relationships. That being said, all the characters that appear in this story are very close to my heart.
• I want to keep this story as light-hearted as possible, but some triggering situations may be brought up from time to time. Nothing too drastic, though.
• I have this compulsive need to assign each of my characters a celebrity face. If you can't picture who I've chosen for a particular role, then feel free to come up with your own!
• From the general concept to the characters, this is a project that I am very, very proud of. I can't wait for you all to experience it as well!!!
