He continues to stare as the young girl hums quietly, while keeping her eyes locked on the book in her hands. At the sound of his footsteps, she suddenly stops reading only to look up and let out a squeal, one that he found adorable. Her already rosy cheeks become even brighter. "Hello." He melts at the sound of her angelic voice and says his next words carefully, softly. "Hi sweetheart." She tilts her head to the side as he unknowingly stares at her with a certain longing. "Who are you?" "I'm Seth. What's your name?" He questions, taking a step into her room. She grins, causing two cute dimples to appear on her cheeks. "Daisy." ~ In which Seth Andrews, who is usually quiet and brooding, becomes captivated by his best friends little sister, Daisy Miller, who believes everyone has at least a little good in them.

When Alexandria's artfully designed anonymity shatters under the attention of Kaden - the school's annoyingly charming heartthrob - she's forced to confront everything she's spent years avoiding: being seen, being vulnerable, and maybe even being loved. Alex has perfected the art of blending in. Between pick-up shifts at her mom's pastry shop and quiet nights with her best friends Robyn and Mark, she's built a comfortable life in the shadows. Love? That's something she watches from a distance, even when parents make it look attainable. But Kaden won't let her hide. As his unexpected interest pulls her front and center, in turn making her shield of invisibility weaken, Alex finds herself navigating unfamiliar territory: glittering charity galas she usually dreads, late-night horror movie marathons that feel dangerously intimate, and the sharp vindictiveness of a girl who doesn't appreciate the competition. Through it all, Alex and Kaden learn that the scariest thing isn't opening your heart - it's keeping it closed. Sometimes love is worth the risk, even when you're terrified it might break you.
