Loneliness is nothing new to Elena Kinsley. She had to grow up pretty quickly when her dad left her to work abroad, and she's taken care of herself from an unreasonably young age. Her only constant goal was success. Safe to say it didn't leave much time for fun, let alone relationships. In the summer before Senior year, Elena receives a job offer. Babysitting for a rich family in her city. Nothing could possibly go wrong, right? Wrong. It's not until her first day does she realise that the family belongs to Parker Ashford, Preston High School's golden boy. Parker is hot, stubborn, arrogant, and Elena can't help but be drawn to him, no matter how hard they both try to resist.

"Look Noah. I'm sorry-" "You have nothing to be sorry for." He cuts me off. I let out of a breath. I felt a bit relieved. "So are we back to-" "Look we shouldn't hang out anymore." His words instantly make my stomach drop. "Why? I don't understand," I step closer to him. I had the urge to grab a hold of his arms that were crossed over his chest and unfold them. "I thought we were friends and I thought there was something there." His eyes narrow at me words and he takes a step back from me. "I don't want to be your friend or anything else for that matter. Goodbye Em." With that he leaves, leaving me by myself and heartbroken.
