When Victoria 'Tori' Peige found out that Zachary Anderson was the reason for all of her bestfriend's past break-ups, she knew she had to step in and make a move. Even if it was against her will, Ms. goody-goody asked Zach to be her boyfriend. Little did Tori know that Zach only agreed because he wanted to use her in order to get to her bestfriend. But what would happen when the relationship that started out with lies and deceit turn into something...real?

What if Angels and Demons were real as well as other creatures of myth and legend, but our knowledge of them was flawed, what if they walked among us on a daily basis and we were just too naive to see them for what they are? How would you know the difference if you never knew the signs? What if an angel could hide its wings, or a witch was just as normal looking as your mother or brother? Would you know who was who, or what was what? Would you even know where to begin? Jason is anything but an ordinary high school student, his skin is as white as snow; his hair an unnatural black that would give coal a run for it's money, and his eyes an emerald green that almost seem to glow. He's tall and heavily muscled, with extensive martial arts training; although his peers are the reason he became a fighter; he was once the victim of bullying and ridicule because of his unearthly appearance. Only Cassie looked past his appearance to see the boy beneath. She became his only friend until Mark appeared. Instantly, Jason and Mark seemed drawn together by more than mere circumstances. For the first time in Jason's life, someone doesn't seem to notice how unearthly his appearance is. Mark doesn't see him as otherworldly. Instead, he sees beauty and strength. Although even he doesn't fully understand why he feels so strongly toward a complete stranger or why he feels he has to know him. This is a story about love conquering all, regardless of past tragedies or the loss both boys have suffered. They will stand hand in hand through thick and thin, as fate throws curve ball after curve ball. Their lives will be forever changed by their meeting; be it for the better or for the worst. Love is never easy, but sometimes, it can be pure and selfless.
