* * Sequel to His Hostage: Don't read if you haven't read book 1! * * Now that Zayn's locked up and the media is dying down, Emmeline and Harry are given a fresh new start. With both attending the same college and the new friendship and growing romance between the two, it seems like everything is finally falling into place. But nothing comes easy. Things might seem perfect, but they're actually far from it. The kidnapping had an affect on Emmeline more then she's willing to admit to herself, and she's- traumatized. She's struggling to get past what happened and Harry is also facing his own demons. He's got a secret of his own and he's unable to stop blaming himself when he sees how much his choices had left Emmeline scarred. He can't take back what he did or what he said to her but he's willing to try and help her get through it, hoping to not only heal her but himself as well. Yet he's thrown through a loop and more stress is added to his plate when shitty parents try to pry through his and Emmeline's life. Oh, and it only gets worse when an old best friend comes back into Em's life, making it clear to Harry that he wants her and is willing to fight him to the brink if it means gaining her affection. Nothing about their relationship has ever been simple but they survived a hostage situation and near death experience. Surely they can handle a few more bumps along the way before they get their happy ending... Right?

Kaydence Taylor has a dark and unforgettable past, which has led her to be withdrawn from her peers and the rest of the world. She prefers to stay out of the spotlight and keep her head behind her notebook, where she can write out her feelings instead. Then suddenly on one night Kaydence is forced to stop hiding, and agrees to drive her roommate, Madison, to a One Direction concert. She can't even stand the foreign boy band, so it shocks her when she runs into the one and only Harry Styles. From the beginning, Harry is everything she hates, a conceited cocky bastard with heart stopping green eyes and dimples, who also just happens to find mere joy and excitement in pissing her off. What if she's wrong about him though? What if the guy she thought she hated is the one person who can save her? But then what happens when the darkest secrets you've kept for so long, are threatened to be exposed by the one person who has the power to tell the whole world? *IN EDITING*
