He was the worst thing that could've happened to her, and yet she was the best thing that could've happened to him. Olivia Rhodes has never been one to care much about someone's past, on who they were or what has made them become the person they are now. Her world is seemingly perfect: a humorous best friend, two loving parents, her baby sister-who cries a bit too much-and a bright future waiting for her once senior year is over. But her life would unwind into a world of secrecy when her neighbor suddenly moves out and someone else moves in. Hunter Black is the new guy in town, and everyone is talking about him. Handsome, charming, and mysterious, it almost seems like he acts as a beacon for attention-good and bad. Olivia wouldn't have cared about him in a normal situation, but it seems like the closer she gets to him, the more she finds herself lost in a world she didn't even think existed. There's something about Hunter that she wants to understand, uncover the complex web of lies that is building around him. And she's going to have a good reason for doing so when she finds out she's the only one who can see him in his true self. ---------------------- 𝐀𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐒: -Runner-up on the Spring Book Awards 2019 with a score of 98/100 -First place in the Paranormal Category on the April Blue Rose Awards ---------------------- 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐃: 07/23/2016 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐃: 07/08/2019 CURRENTLY EDITING (LIKE, HEAVILY EDITING) ⚠️ 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐑: Chapters ARE long since they all carry a good amount of content and have the actual length of a physical book chapter, so I do apologize if that's not what you like.
