[ #1 in "Rising" Chicklit (4/10) ] "What do you want from me, Hazel?" A muscle in his strong jaw ticks, almost as though it's counting down the seconds until his emotions swallow the both of us whole. I've never met anyone like Tyler. Never met anyone who's so honest about themselves like he is. The good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful...it doesn't matter. He's an open book and that...scares me. His mere existence in my life demands that I open myself to him in the same way. He wants me to wear my heart on my sleeve, but that's how things get broken. That's how people lose themselves, and I can't let that happen again. Tyler inches towards the door, shaking his head. He's going to leave, I can tell just by the look in his eyes. He'll leave and he won't come back. My fingers latch onto the sleeve of his jacket before I can stop myself. This was supposed to be fun. This was supposed to be harmless. Why can't we go back to it just being easy? "Everything," I tell him in a hushed whisper. "I want...I want everything." (Detailed summary inside) ✖️✖️✖️ Ranking | Chicklit HR: #28 (4/22/18)

One thing, just one little thing Julie had to do to have a... Let's say decent... First day at her new school... Don't. Draw. Attention. First impressions mean everything. Just one little screw up and she knew that she would have to wish her junior year goodbye. So she decided to stick to this one grand rule that would ultimately determine her social life, reputation, and mentality. Survive through highschool. How hard can it be right? ... WRONG!!!! She was reading in her room when she just decided to take one... Little... HARMLESS glance outside of her new bedroom window. But all of a sudden... BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There stood a half naked, greek god bad boy right before her very own eyes!! So you may ask, what do you do in a situation like this? SIMPLE. You squat down in the middle of your bedroom floor... Because that's obviously not embarrassing... And start doing ninja rolls from one side of the room to the window curtains going COMPLETELY UNNOTICED. Well... That is until you bang your head against the wall after doing a total of SIX slightly slanted ninja rolls right in front of your friendly... Still without clothes... Abs are present... Somewhat very sexy... Abs are still present... Okay really good looking... ABS I REPEAT ABS ON SHOW... Hot, sexy, and did I mention ab-delicious Neighbor Or to be more specific... Ashton Rider. Say goodbye to an unnoticed school year, and hello to the bad boy's world. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Book one in the T.B.B.B. (The Bad Boy Boxer) Series WARNING: Lots of typing mistakes!!!
