More like the hidden in the crowd girl names Jessica who is ignored at school, keeps her head down and just passes on with life while wearing colored eye contacts and a wig to keep her hidden. Will he end up recognizing her?After all she is his new coach. 

 Let's stalk them on their journey of love, hate, pain, sacrifice, illness, hospital visits, blah blah blah blah blah blah. Just remember some stories don't have happy endings...

It started with a whisper. A name. A ghost from the past. Eve. Chris Scott doesn't lose. He takes. He owns. He destroys anything that dares to defy him. But when Eve-his sister, his blood-returns from the dead, she doesn't bring closure. She brings secrets. Lies. A past soaked in blood. And now, the one thing Chris swore was buried is clawing its way back, threatening to unhinge the monster he's barely keeping leashed. Dave was supposed to move on. But how do you move on from the one person who was ripped away from you? The one person who still owns your heart? Eve's return should've been his salvation. Instead, it's his destruction. Because now, he's not the only one watching her. And love? Love isn't always enough to save someone. Lieve doesn't know how to lose. And she never will. Because what she wants, she takes. And what she wants is Dave. Completely. And if that means breaking him? Ruining everything he holds dear? So be it. After all, obsession doesn't play fair. And then there's Serah.

What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet.
