Corren's family is left shattered and in pieces after the suicide of Scott, Corren's brother. Six months later Corren has been in his third fight at school. His parents find this as an excuse to send him away, but Corren knows the real reason; they can't look him in the eye without seeing Scott.

He's tired of taking blades to his skin, he's done with his insomnia, and he's sick of feeling like Scott's death was his fault. Corren is without a doubt, tired of fighting. Drugs, love, family, friends. Being reckless is fun, but how far can you get before you're in too deep? Being this young, temptations are just begging for a chance! Will Corren win his battle, or is it too late for the boy with scars? [The Fighter's Series - Book 2] [Sequel to The Butterfly Effect]

"I'm not going to cry for you, Roman. I won't let you break my heart." But I could feel myself breaking, even as I said the words. The unmistakable feeling of grief was rising up in me and making it hard for me to breath. I could see Roman in the soft light the street lamp shone on both of us. His mouth tilted up, slowly into a sad smile. "I'll try my hardest to avoid that. But there's something you should know Greg." He paused and my breaths came out uneven, shaky as I waited for him to respond. "I don't make promises I'm certain I can't keep." Greg Hanes has been straight for most of his life. He's had girlfriend after girlfriend but none of them have worked. When he went to Doverhall School for Boys he planned on getting away from all the drama, but things change when a certain someone grabs his attention. The problem? He's a guy. //This book is a spin-off of One Thousand Paper Cranes, but you don't have to read that book in order to read this one. I would advise it though because, while there are new characters in this one, most of the characters come from One Thousand Paper Cranes//

Dear ____ , My therapist told me to start writing these letters. I don't understand the point of them, when I'm never going to put a stamp on them or write an address on them and send them off. And you're never going to read this, anyways. My life's just changed. And it's not because I've figured out that I'm gay. It's not even because my parents divorced and my Dad moved out. It's not because Sara got accepted into Uni. Tomorrow, I might never come back home. And even if my mission partner is the hottest guy in the world, I might not come back home. I don't want to die. I think my goldfish is judging me as I write this. He's always judging me.
