If there's anything Kiara Washington wants nothing to do with, it's her white peers at Chancely High School. But being seen as the "problem student" puts her in a negative light, causing her to reluctantly agree to take on an assignment that'll keep her out of trouble. She will be in charge of overseeing and befriending Christiano Marks, a new student from Philadelphia who takes an immediate liking to his new pal.

Despite her initial disdain towards the entire situation, Kiara feels drawn to Chris. His presence causes her to reflect on the past experiences that contribute to her present feelings. Eventually, the attraction becomes undeniable and must be explored. But just as she's truly beginning to let go, new problems arise. When her trauma begins to be used as a means for tokenism and experimentation, her relationship with Chris is put to the test.

Will Kiara and Chris be able to overcome these obstacles, or are the outside forces trying to tear the two young lovers apart just too powerful?

[COMPLETED] "That wasn't very nice, was it princess?" He asked in a husky voice and I stuttered, trying to form words but failing. His lips leaned in and started to trail softly down my neck. I tried to hold in my moan as the light feeling of his lips in my skin continued until he pulled back abruptly. "Sorry princess. Not today." He finished before walking out of the room, leaving me in a daze. Madison Thompson isn't your typical 18-year-old. She attends Sea City High School in Florida and her temper and attitude always gets the better of her. But her strange encounter with school badboy and star quarterback, Noah Johnson, who has a bad past, puts her on edge as well as her little secret is slowly rising from the ashes. Seems like the typical storyline...right? She's falling, in more ways that one, and doesn't realise it, but will Noah help her see there's more to her life than what she makes it out to be? WARNING! - Contains strong language, triggering topics (i.e abuse, violence etc.)
