"He is not perfect. He is not whole. But he is still beautiful, scars and all." *** Meet Ebony Smoke - just your average teenage girl who loves reading, dancing, and solitude. She enjoys her completely normal (if not a little boring) life at Silver Cross Academy, but everything changes when she meets Avery Steel - the motorbike-riding, bad-boy-extraordinaire son of Macon Steel, the richest man in Fairview. Avery is a boy with a dark past and an even darker future, and before long Ebony finds herself tangled in a wild web made of the Steel family's secrets, while also dealing with demons of her own. Yes her life may seem plain, but what secrets is she hiding too?

Everyone at school knows Melody Plum is the smartest, best-behaved girl at Sacred Heart. She's kind, quiet, and liked by both students and teachers. She's also one of the prettiest around and could easily become the most popular girl in school, if she cared about stuff like that. But Melody hates being the center of attention, so she hangs out with only a small, select group of friends, one of whom is Charlie Davenport, her best friend since kindergarten. Everyone agrees they could be such a cute couple since Charlie is obviously in love with her, but Melody is super-focused on her studies and doesn't really notice that stuff. Benjamin Davenport is everyone's favorite teacher and all the girls have a crush on him. He is gorgeous, well-dressed, really smart, and has the sexiest voice and British accent. Even some of the women teachers are in love with him, but he chooses to ignore them because he's happily married and has four children who also attend the school. Everyone thinks he has the most perfect family in town. What no one knows is that Melody has been in love with him for years, even though he's more than twice her age and the father of her closest friend in the world. She has never dreamed he would ever see her as a woman and accepts that she will be never be anything else to him but the best friend of his son. At least that's what she thinks. But Mr. Davenport has a secret, too. He has watched Melody grow up into a beautiful young woman over the years and what he is feeling for her now is decidedly not paternal...
