Ashley Summers is everything a girl wants to be. She's confident, intelligent, talented and so damn gorgeous. She has a life one could only dream of. Or so does it seem. A mother she despises. A father who is never there for her. Older brother off to university. Younger brother too immature to understand. A so-called best friend. She's reserved. Dark. Keeps her deepest secrets to herself. A closed book. Raymond Stratford, the school's chocolate boy, cool-headed, warm hearted, sweet, lovable, interesting yet a bit arrogant and sexy as hell. The playboy who dates high school's hottest girls. Ashley and Raymond are exact opposites. When they meet, things like celebrations, break-ups, runaways, misunderstandings, drama and loads of fun are surely about to turn up. And love? Definitely. Maybe.

Dark haired and tattooed, Xavier looked like the ultimate bad boy...but weren't bad boys meant to have that boyish charm? The thing is, Xavier was extremely guarded, hot headed and quite frankly, scary. In fact, Xavier was many things but romantic and loving wasn't two of them. He was a building half built, a puzzle with half of the pieces missing... Until he met me. Warning: Bad language (lots of). A possessive delinquent that is guaranteed to make you smile (or cry.)
