Chelle "Jah" Merinne is the daughter to Colonel David Merinne II and Elena Grey, the ultimate Army couple. Jah takes on the true role of being an Army brat; put emphasis on 'brat'. Having a tough past, she's rude and takes it out on everyone. Fed up with her apathetic and sociopathic ways, she's sent to an alternative private school called Mercy Hall by her ill father. Bring her attitude with her, she bumps heads with the one and only, Chresanto August. What happens when the tables turn and she questions her feelings about Chresanto? Chresanto the ladies man of the eleventh grade. Any and every girl wants him, but he plays hard to get. He likes to be around everyone; everyone except Jah. He hates her, and decides to plot to play with her heart. However, tables turn. When his old frenemy and wingman, Jacob Perez, comes to Mercy Hall with the intent to stir things up and get revenge, Chresanto is stuck questioning how he feels about Jah. Can he bring out the real her? Can the web of deceit Jacob creates bring these two into real love?

The last we heard of Destiny, she was left crying behind her school building and pregnant, while Trey was going to Julliard, a performing arts school in New York, to pursue his dreams. Three years later, Trey returns to California and plans to open up the dance studio he's always dreamed of and get back the love of his life. But when he gets back, he's hit with a surprise; Destiny is a mother and happily taken. Or is she? They say it's 'Hard To Forget' your first love. Is this couple the perfect example? (Book two: Sequel to HTG)

Trey. He’s the player of the school. Hell, he can have any girl he wants. Except Destiny Munroe. The new girl. Trey decides she is his next victim but he's got his work cut out. He soon realizes Destiny is immune to his charm so he comes up with a new plan. He teases her, but he soon finds she's feisty when she teases him, just so the scores even. He thinks she's playing Hard To Get, but she's simply...protecting her heart. (I suck at writing these but give the story a chance? you won't regret it!)
