I learned a long time ago not to let things get to me.

That kind of weak spot. 	
Jason Richards is my weak spot. At six-foot something to my five-foot-six frame.

 *scoff* 
Heavens no.  	
What kind of stereotypical “bad-girl-rebel” would I be if I did? 
Well, you see, the thing is, I never use to be like this. I was the quiet, goody-two-shoes with glasses and a retainer. Whoever said one summer changes a person more than a lifetime, was right.  	
One summer at my Aunt Katie’s house in Puerto Rico was the biggest change of my life.

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.
