We've all watched about a million Romantic Comedies where the boy breaks up with his girlfriend because he realizes he's in love with someone else, the "right" girl. And when this finally happens, we're all really happy about it. They immediately set off together, paying no mind to the fact that the boy was in a different relationship, I don't know, about five seconds ago. The person we never think about is the ex-girlfriend, the "wrong" girl. And why not? It hardly seems fair, once you think about it. She's the one always being dumped, or left at the alter, or publicly humiliated. But no one even spares her a second thought, because she was just in the way the whole time. She kept the right girl away from the boy for so long. And of course, we were all rooting for the right girl, who wouldn't be? Serena Briggs was just as guilty of this as everyone else is, until her boyfriend Brayden dumped her for his best friend in front of half the school. Then she became the real life wrong girl.

| SAMPLE ONLY; READ IT NOW ON GALATEA | ❝He's the boy she left behind. She's the girl he let go.❞ ➵ Before she became one of music's biggest up-and-coming artists, Evelyn "Evie" Chase was a nobody at the bottom of the Roosevelt High School food chain with only a handful of friends. Her best friend (and longtime crush)--popular jock, Adam Fields--was her polar opposite, but despite their differences, their bond was as strong as they come. That is, until one day-- one mistake--changed the course of their friendship forever, and the once inseparable duo never spoke again. Fast forward three years, and everything's changed. Evie has the world at her feet, now out in L.A. living her dream as a seventeen-year-old popstar-- leaving the town, the boy who broke her heart, and those who'd made high school unbearable behind. Meanwhile, Adam--at Roosevelt finishing off senior year and still the school (and town's) beloved "golden boy"--is trying his hardest to let go of the past and the girl he let get away. And it's going well, the two of them living their separate lives. Until Evie's back. Suddenly, seventeen and senior year just got a lot more interesting.

"I'm wondering...where you go if you don't have work" I said coldly. "Why would you care?" he asked, his voice strained. "Because I have the misfortune of being your wife" I said sweetly. He narrowed his eyes. "Don't talk to me like that Hazel" he said quietly, stepping forward. "Or what?" I asked "and I'm asking you a question" "Be quiet," "Answer my question" I said calmly. He was quiet. "Where do you go? You clearly don't go to work" "I do, actually" he growled "and I've told you not to use that tone on me" "Don't lie to me" I said ignoring his comment. "What's your problem anyway?" he asked, clenching his teeth. "My problem is that you are disappearing every day and leaving me to talk to the walls in this stupid suite!" I yelled, my voice rising."Would you like it if I vanished every day for hours came back and didn't tell you where I went?" Evelyn shot me an icier look. "But you don't." He said icily. Hazel is happy, for once in her life. She is engaged to the person she loves and she's working on her biggest project yet- nothing can go wrong. Or can it? When Hazel finds out her fiancé is cheating on her, her world turns upside down. Then, to prevent her family from getting bankrupt, she is forced to marry a cold, ignorant man who seems to be married to his job. Evelyn is Hazel's worst nightmare. And to top it all of he doesn't want her to find out about his work. With all the problems brewing around her Hazel sets out to find out the truth for herself about a man she hates- but what she finds makes her realize how little she knows about the man she has married. WARNING: Hey new people. I'm just here to warn you that the first few chapters will be painful, cringeworthy and make you want to bash your face on every solid material in the world due to some conversations and grammatical errors. I am truly sorry. I promise you that it gets better. Please, hang on until the end. It will be hard. :,<
