(CURRENTLY REVAMPED!) (The Slices of Life, #1) For years, one thing that had always bothered Serena Wilton is the idea of reconciling with a past friend. Whenever he was around, her eyes rested upon him; whether it was at classes or outside of school. She yearned for those wonderful memories again, but the looming fear just wouldn't let her initiate the conversation. Serena clearly remembered how their paths crossed in that one field trip, and the instant click as they interacted. He was nothing but a sunny friend with such contagious confidence... until that accident. Not only did he turn into someone Serena never recognized, but the relationship they built together, soured and crumbled apart. Even so, perhaps her plans can actually work if she's willing to push that stupid anxiety away and speak a word or two. Piece of cake, right?

He also races carts down a hill, a popular pastime of the street children of Spring Heights, where not dying or getting injured is a good outcome. ***Official Wattpad Reading Lists featured in: Superhero -- February reading list Adventure -- Middle-grade reading list Undiscovered Stories -- Thrill Seekers reading list Wattpad Urban -- Urban Fantasy reading list Children's Fiction -- Age 10 - 12 English Crime -- Kicking Ass &Taking Names Fantasy -- Middle Grade and Children's Fantasy Fantasy -- Featured Fantasy Stories Action -- Adventure in Action General Fiction -- Live Life While You Can Superhero -- No Power, No Problem
