Blake Taylor. The name of the hottest, most bad ass guy at Oakwood High School. He rightfully earned the place of a delinquent after being suspended eight times in his three years of high school, getting detention pretty much everyday, and managing to get all his teachers to hate him in the first three minutes they meet him. Lately he's been going through some stuff, like his mother's death and his father's abandonment, which consequently has caused him to get into more trouble, and also, possibly not be able to graduate. Alexandra Walker. She's the geek in your science class, that's hot in a rocker chick sort of way. She's one of the smartest kids at Oakwood High, and damn proud. She's also drop dead gorgeous, when she makes an effort, but most people don't see it because they're too focused on her brains or her huge ass attitude. She's tough, but a complete sweetheart once you break down her walls.

Senior prom is nearly here and Grace does not have a date or a boyfriend. The closest she's had to a boyfriend was teaming up for a Science Project with the class geek. However, that doesn't count.

So her friend made a list of five boys who supposedly have a crush on her and she has five weeks to find the perfect date. It'll be no easy task, not when her crush is around. But why would the Captain of the football team like her? And can she avoid humiliating herself in front of him? She tries when he speaks to her for the first time since 6th Grade. However, she may even abandon the list if she could get him to like her or would that fail horribly leaving her with no date and boy who will never like her? Five weeks, five boys... Anything can happen.

I'm not going to lie, getting dreams like these aren't normal. Who else goes to bed every night and watches murders unfold? At least, I think he kills them. The person raises his finger to their pulsing veins and presses down. Through his finger, their youth drains. Eyes that held the promise of life lose their former twinkle. Children, teenagers; everyone falls for his beauty. But when he's around, I find my heart thumping, the butterflies in my stomache erupting-and I don't know why. I’ve tried to ignore him, but it’s difficult when he always seems to be in my head. There is something connecting us, a buzz, a voice. Sometimes I feel as though I am slowly losing my sanity. I'm spiraling into something and I'm worried I can't crawl back out. In the end,I have to fight the pull, the need to be with him. He may have won the affections of everyone he has met, I can't be one of them. Every moment with him just adds to the bond that was set by the fates. With a secretly brewing war, a missing student, and fatal attraction, it will be a miracle if I survive this year.

After not seeing each other for nearly eight years, Justin and Laila are suddenly forced to spend the entire summer together. Now if that's not bad enough, Justin and Laila couldn't be more opposite from each other. At first it's plainly clear to everyone that they're just not going to get along at all. But the more Justin and Laila actually get to know each other - and when they aren't fighting over something stupid - the two slowly realize that maybe there are things in life they'll need each other to figure out. If Justin is arrogant, snarky, and just a bit too handsome for his own good, then Laila may just end up going insane. And if Laila's clever, quick-witted, and beyond pretty, then God help Justin. So the same thought on both of their minds? Is this going to be the summer of a life time or what?
