[INCOMPLETE] Scarlett Jenson is one complicated girl. Nobody can understand her in the way she wants to be understood, and that gives her a hard time opening up to others. Plus being different, she often feel like an outcast at her school. But being different from everyone else is what caught a specific boys attention - James Crawford. This popular boy can't help but be intoxicated by her beauty and mysterious personality, and with Scarlett being shy and closed in, she tries to escape his charm. But eventually, James breaks her walls and endures her chaos and Scarlett tries to fight it until his love consumes her whole. ------- His soft hand cupped the side of my face, but feeling flustered at his touch, I pushed him away. "Don't." I warned James who stood farther away, dumbfounded at my gesture. "Why?" "I just...I don't understand you, James," I finally admitted. I couldn't figure him out, and that terrified me. "You don't understand? It's quite simple, really. I lo-'' "No! Don't say it. Please...don't." If he says it, everything changes. All these emotions I've tried so hard to push away would all come back and haunt me. I can't feel this way. But he ignored my pleas. Once again he cupped the side of my face, but for some reason I didn't stop him. James gently kissed my forehead. "I love you, Scarlett." Those four words and the empires I built to protect me from getting hurt, in a matter of seconds, started to crumble. Highest rank: 2020 #1 teenagers 01/31 2021 #16 romance 02/08 #1 inlove 03/19

But her world changes when she meets Ryder Becker. Ryder Becker is one of the most popular boys in all of Willington High. I mean, all the boys want to be him and all the girls worship him. He could care less about grades because he knows that football is what's going to get him into a good college. But his carelessness in grades changes when he meets Autumn. Not only does Autumn get partnered up with Ryder for the biggest class project of the whole year, she also lives on the same street as him. In the beginning she thinks it's a total curse, but maybe it's a blessing in disguise... They both may pretend on the outside that they are fine, but truth be told, they are both broken. The way his smile doesn't match his sad eyes draws her towards him, and the scars and bruises on her skin draw him towards her. A cure for your sadness could be another person, right? Well put her broken pieces together with his, and you have cracked the code. Love could put their broken pieces back together. ----------------------------------- A sky full of stars and he was still staring at me. "Why are you staring like that?" I asked him. "You scare me, Autumn." Ryder admitted. "How come?" He looked down at the grass beneath us then back at me and gulped. "Because I want to tell you secrets I'm too scared to admit to myself." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🤍I wrote this when I was around 13-14 (i'm 19 now) so some chapters may be cringy but I am too lazy to rewrite them, and still so many people enjoy this book and i'm truly grateful!
