⌘ Dystopia - An imagined place or state in which everything is unpleasant or bad, the opposite of utopia. Lena Ann Prescott may not say much but her thoughts run wild, she may not always think 'fairies' and 'unicorns' all the time but nonetheless she can entertain a positive thought now and then. When sent to a youth correctional centre she encounters a beguiling boy in there of the name Dean. But can love blossom when the seed is broken?

"I need you," he whispered from the passenger seat. Why would I trust a bad boy? But I felt, for some reason, that I needed him to. I turned to look at him, but he was already leaning in to kiss me. Why is love so complicated? Maya Reeds is a seventeen year old girl thriving on independence and drive. She thinks boys are mindless, immature imbeciles and has steered clear of the entire concept of love in general. Her single mother is not just a role model, but an inspiration. Leaving for a business trip to China, Maya's mother has high ambitions for her future. However, she can't leave her daughter alone for all those months. That's where Carrie Groom comes in. Carrie has been friends with Maya's mom for years, and her home seems like a harmless place to stay for the duration of Maya's seeming abandonment. Never thought that Carrie could've raised a bad boy. As Maya endures this temporary move, she is sent into a whirlwind of desire, heated emotions, and betrayal- all fueled by the boy who lives just down the hall.
