Okay, so I decided to write an original story to see how it goes. This is my one of my first original stories, but I'm working on getting better with these things. I happen to enjoy romantic books more than anything, so here it goes. Please tell me how you guys are enjoying the book, and don't hesitate to comment about something you might want me to add to it either.
Bethany lives in a house with her little brother, she loves her family, but everything seems different since her father left. At the age of sixteen, she has a little brother to take care along with her own responsibilities. Her mother being a business person, is usually out and about in the different cities or wherever her job ends up taking her. 
It's been years since anyone lived next door, not since her childhood sweetheart moved out leaving her heartbroken. He hadn't said anything to her, he just picked up and left without a word. When the house is finally occupied by another family of three consisting of: a teenage boy, a younger sister, and a mother, Beth can't find it in herself to greet them. She pulled up walls, so that she couldn't be hurt by anyone, but she's not arrogant or rude as most people that put up walls would be. Her kindness and generosity still shine, but it takes her awhile to open up to her next door neighbors. 
Her best friend, Grace, has always been there. Let's just say that she isn't as uptight as Beth. She allows people into her life faster than Beth would, and she could see how her blonde best friend has her eyes on the new guy at school. Whether she is trying to figure out if she could trust him or not, Grace has got to do something to help her friend. Maybe there could be a potential relationship brewing within the walls of Lake View High in Chicago, Illinois?
