The rules are clear and she's certain of her goal: make Ben fall in love with her. So why does it seem like the lines always blur when Mason is around? *** Charlotte Anderson has secretly been in love with her best friend, Ben Hathaway, since childhood, though he's never seen her as anything but the girl next door. After witnessing Ben kissing another girl at a party, a heartbroken Charlotte accidentally admits her crush to notorious bad boy Mason Reed... who also happens to be one of Ben's closest friends. But Mason isn't going to tell Charlotte's secret; instead, he suggests they fake a relationship to make Ben jealous. They create a set of strict rules for the arrangement: no kissing when Ben isn't around, no sex, and no falling in love. But as their fake relationship progresses, and Mason's walls break down, Charlotte finds herself questioning her true feelings for both boys, and wondering if some rules are meant to be broken-especially when it comes to love.

When someone thinks about killing themselves, they are titled as Suicidal. Alongside Suicide, Depression is a mental illness that almost always leads people to suicidal thoughts. Sometimes it will be a lonely Old Man/Woman. Sometimes it will be a little boy/Girl who has just became a teenager, but doesn't feel she is needed. Sometimes it will be a middle aged Man/Woman who seems to have her entire life together, when really they are torn into pieces. • And sometimes, like this time, it is a high school student who doesn't think she has any other path to choose, but suicide. *If anyone ever feels as if they have no other choice please get in contact with a suicide hotline [ 1-800-273-8255] *This story will contain self harm, and a little bit of language*
