Emily Gilmore. Brown straight hair, warm chocolate eyes, skinny body and shy personality. She has never been the kind of girl to stand out. In fact, she always preferred standing in the background, reading her books and not bothering anyone else.
Scott Preston. Light brown hair, electric grey eyes, sculpted body and outgoing personality. He has always been the kind of guy who befriended everybody. Popular, kind and gentle. He spoke his mind without a second thought, and he didn't care what anybody thought of him.
Emily was sure Scott had no idea who she was, even though they had been going to the same schools since she can remember. Scott has no clue who this mysterious, quiet Emily is, yet, something about her calls to him. He wants to break her shell, even when she's enveloped in countless layers of protection and social anxiety.
After an assignment joins these two together, Emily is bound to not make a fool of herself while Scott does his best to be her friend.
