"I need you to be the put together one because I'm so fucked up. You've saved me." He whispers. "Carter, we saved each other." I mutter looking at him through my eyelashes. I lean into him, our lips not even an inch apart. "Sophia we shouldn't..." He looks hesitant. "Please, I need you." I almost started crying. "Please." I mutter one more time, my eyes begging for him. My body needing him. Sophia Carrington. She just moved from New York to California in search of a new life. When her life took a dark turn she's forced to leave everything behind. She just wants to finish her final year of high school, numb to the world, while learning to cope with the trauma she's endured. Carter Marquez. Newly single after being dumped by his girlfriend of two years. After losing his dad in a car accident he's fallen apart. The list of people he trusts is short, he hates letting people in.

Misunderstandings and a dash of alcohol set a flame between them. Sophia hates the snarky remarks and stupid nicknames that leave his mouth. Carter thinks Sophia is just another trust fund brat. Soon their rivalry begins to dissolve and they learn that sharing the pain of their past can form connections they never thought to be possible.

Mia Jones was the sole witness to a devastating tragedy that changed her life forever. With that change came a new perspective on life. She's very pro-black (which isn't a bad thing), she doesn't trust easily, and she's been very uptight and protective over her youngest brother for most of her life since the tragedy. Now in her senior year of college, Mia has decided to take more chances then she's ever taken before. She's opening up and trying new things while also learning to loosen the reigns she has over her brother. When Alicia, her roommate/best friend, decides to send her on a blind date, the guy is the complete opposite of what she would ever go for. However, she didn't realize he might actually be someone she NEEDED. Add into the mix a cast filled with list of colorful college students and your given a recipe for drama! Mia's senior year is about to be one long rollercoaster of emotions but hopefully she'll come out unscathed. Please vote and comment on chapters that you enjoy! Thank you in advance ❤️
