Victoria Harris is a bull. Not literally, of course. But she's pretty true to what her zodiac sign says about her. She's stubborn as hell, sarcastic and witty, and is perfectly fine with being on her own. Using guys as a way to pass the time and avoiding romance at all costs is how she functions. She doesn't date and she's determined to keep it that way. But isn't there always one boy that thinks he can change the stubborn girl? This is not a story of love. This is a story of broken boy meets broken girl, as they try to safety pin the pieces of their broken hearts back together. Maybe this time, two wrongs can make it right.

"This is a story about our love. An intoxicating, fast-paced love that didn't think of time as a source of measurement over the course of a summer that changed my life forever. "A love that resembled a firework. It went up with a bang - outbursts of colors, sounds and emotion - but only out with a short fizzle. An outline of smoke, with the ashes on the ground as the only telltale sign that we actually had something." ~~~~~~~~~~ « further description inside » #2 IN YOUNG ADULT (2/20/20) #6 IN #SUMMER (4/8/19) #93 IN TEEN FICTION (3/25/18) #97 IN TEEN FICTION (3/22/18) #263 IN TEEN FICTION (3/6/18) #647 IN TEEN FICTION (2/23/18) #674 IN TEEN FICTION (2/20/18) #853 IN TEEN FICTION (2/18/18) (An Ex-Featured Wattpad Pick)
