Regret

"Do you have any regrets?" He asked me. My laughter died off and I suddenly felt so naked and open. I couldn't tell him about my list. About all the things I wished I could redo. He would think I was so surface, so stupid.

River O'Donnell was your everyday pretty, smart, popular girl...in elementary school. But by the time she reaches high school she is just a nobody, and she can't stand it. It drives her crazy and every waking moment she contemplates her past and all the things she would have done differently if she could do it again.

I was 15, pretty, sporty, and never been kissed. I had barely even held a guy's hand. And it tortured me, as if I wasn't good enough.

Soon however, she develops a friendship with Mason Parker, a boy from her past with a similar story. As they grow closer, River realizes that everything happens for a reason, and sometimes things don't always go right in order to reach what is your destiny.
