Heart of Stone

He smirked at me, and I returned his look with a glare of my own. He started advancing towards me, and I started backing up every step he took.

“Come on, Ace. You know you don’t want to keep backing up.” He smirked.

“I’ll keep going if it saves me.” I whispered.

“Saves you from what?” He questioned back.

I took a deep breath. “Love.” I said and took off running past him, leaving my heart behind.

Amberleigh Greyson was neglected of her parents when she was younger after they died in a fatal car crash. Her and her brother were left behind to live with their aunt and uncle. Ever since, Amberleigh has denied any feelings of love for anyone, even her own family.

Amberleigh is the lead of The Spit Fires, an incredibly dangerous gang near the coast of Alabama. Everyone fears her; males included. Being the only girl in any of the gangs, she’s one dangerous chick. She never loses a fight, and never backs down or gives up until she receives the prize. With her best friend Jonathan and the rest of the gang on her side, she seems unstoppable. That is, until a new guy shows up.

Wesley Carter is number one with the ladies; old and young. Everywhere he goes, jaws drop and the girls don’t bother to pick them up. He’s highly experienced in street fighting and pretty dangerous himself.

He arrives at The Spit Fires’ hideout one day, expecting to be let in immediately after proving himself. The whole gang is all for his joining, all except for Amberleigh and Jonathan. Amberleigh doesn’t trust him, therefore neither does he.

Wesley in instantly intrigued by the brunette, blue eyed hottie that is now his gang leader, and Amberleigh can’t deny the attraction to the brunette, brown eyed hottie, even if it is just for the looks.

Wesley needs to settle down, as does Amberleigh. With both of them scared to open their heart up to love, even a fraction, how will this ever work? Maybe Wesley will melt her Heart of Stone.
