I was terrified of small spaces and he knew that. 

I could feel the sweat pooling in the crease behind my knees. My arms were hugging my knees to my chest and my chin rested on my knee and I waited for Darren to unlock the closet. I couldn't reach my phone that was in my back pocket, as there wasn't enough room for me to slide my hand behind my back to reach it...

Dakota is just like every other 17 year old high school senior. Or that's what everyone thinks. Everyone sees Dakota as this funny, sarcastic, and caring girl. What people don't see is how much she is truly suffering inside. People don't know that the smile she always wears is completely fake. They don't know what's really going on at home. They don't see the bruises she has to cover up every morning. They don't see her having to step up to take care of her two younger siblings. She puts on a fake smile as soon as she walks through the school doors and slowly builds her walls up higher as each day goes on. She thinks no one will ever see past her facade...that is, until three new bad boys come strolling into town taking an automatic interest in Dakota. And one certain bad boy can read her like an open book. Will Dakota eventually let these three bad boys in? Or will she keep everything in until she finally reaches her breaking point?

His eyes are set on making her the next victim of his playful games, just to piss off her dad. Even with her father's warnings to stay away from the new neighbors, Gabby finds herself breaking the rules for the first time in her life. It brings out the best and the worst of the people she trusts the most, including herself. Secrets she didn't even know she carried are brought to light, shaking the town to its core.

He wore a light blue shirt and leather jacket, and had fluffy black hair that fell into his eyes if his head was tilted just right. He stood with his arms crossed, leaning against the tree by our table. "And who's that?" I asked Dillon again, my voice going up an octave. I cleared my throat, trying to hide it. She laughed. "That, Dakota, is the badass of our school. Never had a relationship, is pretty much always an asshole, and pretty boy's protection. Although, Pierce can handle himself. But we're sure Landon Hudson over there enjoys the fighting." ************** Dakota Miller has a normal, routine life. Or did. Until her parents decided to move and make her switch schools. She manages to find a good group of people and keep a low profile, at least until the badass of the school swoops in and wreaks havoc. With him, he brings blood, money, drugs, and fighting into her life. As much as she hates it, she can't shake the feeling she gets from running with the bad boy.
