"Stars, hide your fires; Let not light see my black and deep desires. The eye wink at the hand, yet let that be Which the eye fears, when it is done, to see." - Shakespeare People make mistakes. People break rules. People even break the law. Sure, we aren’t perfect creatures but the thing about people is that we usually have pretty good reasons behind those bad decisions. And another thing about people is that they tend not to care about reasons as much as actions. Hallie Rhodes has found this out the hard way. No, she’s not proud of the decisions that she’s made that may have put her at odds with the law, but she had her reasons. Not that anybody cares about reasons. The way Hallie saw it, she had no choice except to forge the documents to get herself and her two younger brothers out of an abusive foster home. She has had a lot of tough breaks in her life. She’s only eighteen but she already has custody of her two younger brothers and to make ends meet, she’s taken on a full-time job along with balancing her senior year of high school. Strong, determined, and mature- Hallie is ready for whatever life throws at her. Except for Tate Conner, who is the exact opposite of Hallie. Lazy, entitled, immature, and cocky. Fresh out of reform school and on parole, he is the epitome of a bad influence, which is why Hallie is outraged when she notices that her younger brother is starting to befriend Tate. As they continuously but heads, Hallie starts to wonder just how put-together she really is.

This story started when Thea receives a letter saying that she got invited to the Sophomore Year's Leadership Training Seminar. She really got shocked when she found out she was chosen to be the participant of such seminar. Well, she was MORE shocked when she knew who her seminary partner is. That day has been such a bittersweet moment. The first time that Seth Deavon spoke to her, Thea knew every single day with him was going to be hell. He was annoying--correction: very annoying, uber stubborn and a hell of a jerk. Wait, did I mention he has an ego the size of Canada? But everytime they're together, something happens--either they're laughing together, Thea's crying or Thea feels the butterflies in her stomach going crazy (*wink*).

But what do they say? Sometimes, things changes and everything has a reason. And we all have to take a risk. So live, laugh and love with Thea Hartens in her crazy life with Seth Deavon in This Bad Boy I'm With.
