A fifteen year old named Emily falls for the guy next door with a lazy eye and a cheek scar and can't help but fall in love

He pulled up on the side of the curb as we unpacked. " You must me Lia" he smirked, pulling his lip ring between his teeth. "I'm Shawn Mendes, your new neighbor" and it all took off from there.

"I hate you.." He spit, looking me dead in the eye. "The feelings quiet mutual Mendes." I went turn away, not wanting anything more to do with this boy. "But." He grabbed my arm, spinning me back around fiercely. His cigarette filled breath hitting my lips. "I can't help but be insanely attracted to you." And I couldn't help but want to tell him. 'The feelings still mutual, Mendes'

Not all people have perfect lives. Sometimes life can be difficult, and at times, life can be awesome. But not mine. I always wake up to life giving me the hardest experiences. And to top all of that, I can't fight back. Well, not yet. Then suddenly, a certain someone changed my life. He changed things that I didn't even know it could change. I never knew falling in love could be so tiring. But people shouldn't be 'falling' in love. Because everything that falls, breaks. And so it all started. Falling For You.

A high school teenager dealing with hormones, she gives everyone a hard time and earned her well-deserved label as "the bad girl." There are other labels as well. People who get to school an hour early, have perfect attendance, think their grades are better than everyone's- something that Shawn Mendes is- "the nerds." However, Shawn runs into a problem that Corie offers to fix. Their unlikely personalities clash as they work together to accomplish what they both want. ________ BOOK 1 {Completed}
