Charlotte, I think you could describe her as kind of witty, extremely sarcastic, adventurous, magnet for trouble, kind, briefly kind (veeeerrry brief), athletic, but overall, just trying to be herself and fit in to society all at the same time
So you can imagine she might have some trouble on the way, but I mean isn't real life like a princess story, where she will meet the boy of her dreams, all her problems go away, they get married, she gets prego, pops out a few watermelons, and they live happily ever after!!!???!!???!!
Right, sure, like that is going to happen *note the extreme sarcasm*!!!!
Basically keep in mind, life is not a fairy tale, pencils have erasers, and people have the ability to mess up themselves, and others around them, and sometimes you get lucky, and you sacrifice enough of your own happiness and you find yourself along the way. Some people just don't have the luck of the draw, but at the end of the day, they tried hard enough to say, "hey, I did my best and that should be all someone can ask from me!"
And for some it takes a hell of a lot of time to get there!!!
Charlotte isn't your average teenage girl, but she is going to make hell rain down on some and find herself in others, she might not be boy crazy, but she can appreciate some hot abs once in awhile, and enjoy some shopping sprees!!!!!!!

It's the last year of high school, and everything has changed . . .
*****
After a summer spent in the Philippines, Lara Dela Cruz is eager to start her senior year and, most importantly, reunite with her three besties. But what she did not expect was to show up on the first day of school to all three of her friends now in relationships. Fighting for their attention, catching some new and confusing feelings for long-time frenemy James, and wading through the pressures of post-high-school plans all have Lara reeling. And to make matters worse, Lara's beautiful and untrustworthy cousin conveniently appears and wiggles her way right between her and James' budding relationship. Feeling like a third wheel in more ways than one, Lara must learn to accept that change is inevitable, love is complicated, and being the odd one out is sometimes where inner power is found.
